Dear Laurie,

I never really got to say goodbye. So I will try to on here as best as possible. You may not have realized it then I'm sure you do now. How much you made a impact on my life. I grew up with you a couple house down. During that time I could always talk to you I always knew your door was open. Sometimes I came to just talk to you and get your opinion on everyday things. I would talk to you about so much and no matter what I always got the truth. I really didn't realize then but I do now that you used to talk to me about so much also. Then you moved and before you passed I may have only seen you a handful of times but I still cherish all the times together and hold them very close to my heart. Your children who were your world are doing good and I'm sure you would be proud of who they have became. Laurie the main reason for this is for me to tell you I love you and thank you so much for opening your door thank you for the great memories,advice,and friendship Thank you. Charles
