Loving Memories never die as the years pass by, In our hearts a memory is kept of Laura ,a happy wonderful person we've met & will never forget. Thinking of all the family to-day. Our sincere sympathy to you.

We have happy memories of your loved one. She loved her dear Clarence and all of her family. When we would ask about her family, she would light up and her eyes would sparkle. She would quickly ask how we were. We remember her and Clarence dancing, smiling and just having a good time. She had a beautiful smile and always looked well groomed, ready to have a good chuckle. Even at the Nursing Home, where she may have been confused, she still had a pleasant smile. May you treasure your happy memories and feel peace and joy, Sincerely, Bob and Mary McIntee

Mom and Dad (Janet and Harry) often dragged me off to visit relatives but I never complained when we were heading to Laura and Clarence's! The food was always wonderful and everyone spent a good deal of time laughing and sharing tales. Condolences to the family.
