Rahn, Corey and Family,

Thinking of Laura over the years, always brings a smile. My memories of her at Olivet involve our mutual love of Christ, faithful Sunday School attendance, participation in the choir and United Methodist Women.
I have missed visiting with her in the Garden Room Sunday mornings.
She was tiny and feisty with a big heart and presence. She loved you boys and you were so blessed to have her as a mother as I was blessed to have her as a Christian friend.

With sincere sympathy in Christ's love, Ellen Barnes
