To: Jaymie,Jason,Justin and "Ontee" Janie; I'am so very sad about hearing about the loss of your Mother and Sister. My Mom & I were invited some years ago to see the collage of pictures that Laurie had set up in her north side condo that were of Grandpa Lou right after he passed away, I still cherish that visit today. My thoughts and prayers are with "ALL OF YOU" God Bless You Bruce........

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to Jaymie, Jason and Justin. I worked many years with your mom at St Joseph's Home and Society's Assets. She was one of the kindest and most caring person that I had the honor and privilege to work with. I considered her my friend and am very saddened by her passing. May she rest in peace and know she is never far away. Hugs to all. Kathy O

I knew Laurie when she was the nurse at Canterbury home years ago and also more recently while she was at Regent Manor. She was a very loving, caring nurse and person. She extended that to her staff as well as her residents. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. She will be missed. Kim Umland

Jaymie, Jason, Justin, I'm so sorry to hear about your mom's passing. She will truly be missed and remembered by so many people whose lives she's touched over the years. I'll always remember both of us becoming Steagalls about the same time. Don't know what I would have done without her.

To all of Laurie's family, I pray peace for all of you. I will miss my dear sweet friend, and want you all to know of the joy she shared with me when she talked about what a beautiful family she had. We shared faith and friendship and laughs and so much more. I was blessed to have known her. I will never forget her thoughtful ways and the example of what caring and kindness mean.
