We will remember her forever. Laurel was a beautiful, loving, and caring soul. She will forever be missed. We invite all of her family and friends to share their stories, comments, photos, etc. of her so that we can all celebrate her wonderful soul.
I will be adding many additional stories to this website. They are some special memories shared and memorial donations made in Laurel's honor, in response to a request made by her aunt for family & friends to share memories at Christmas time as a gift to Laurel's mom, dad & brother at a time we knew they would be feeling her loss more acutely.
Look on the Stories section for these additions and thank you to all that contributed!
And thanks to everyone who have visted, added stories, photos and tributes. Especially as Laurel's Golden Birthday has just occurred. Keep visiting and adding your thoughts and stories!
There is a photo of Laurel and Kurt on the beach which requires some explanation. My memory is faulty but Laurel was putting together a photo montage for a relative back home (something about a project needing to be completed). The reason I like the photo so much is that it reminds me that Laurel was most happy when she was helping others. A trait she surely picked up from her parents.
She was a city girl but still enjoyed nature - I think she found our swimming hole a peaceful place with water, trees and birds singing.
