Dearest Helen and your family. You brought Laurie into my life when I was just a little girl. He was such a wonderful part of our family with his quick smiles and chuckles; another brother to tease us. He is now sharing stories and chuckles with “Fonzie”, which is something he enjoyed. To know Laurie was to instantly love him, because he was such a Great guy. We shall miss him terribly, but none as much as you all will. I am sorry that you are going through this sad and difficult time.
Love Lois & Brian

To my dear sister, Helen and her children, I send my love and prayers. Laurie was the fella who came into our lives when you and him dated, and then when you were married to him, he became another brother. Always treating us like we were his natural family, he was loved by all of us. As he rests ever so gently in the arms of the Lord, may you find peace and comfort, knowing that he will be forever watching over and loving you from his heavenly home.
