I am so sorry to hear about my friend's passing. She is no longer in pain and is at peace now.
I'm so grateful to God that she and I patched things up recently, I never stopped thinking about her and obviously she felt the same way.
Love you Laura, but I know now you will certainly have the best seat in the house at the next Pearl Jam concert that is in Cleveland.

Was seriously pissed at my family...mom..bros and sister...but yesterday it was all put in perspective...and I made a call to let them know I'll be seeing them this Christmas.....

such a postive presence... even now, she is still helping people!
With sincere condolences from me and my family to you and your family. May the strength of your mom's spirit guide you and your family through this difficult time. Our prayers go out to you and yours.
SIN EATERS--We take the moral excrement we find in this equation and we bury it down deep inside of us so that the rest of our case can stay pure. That is the job. We are morally indefensible and absolutely necessary.
A spirit like hers will be missed but NEVER forgotten.
Although our hearts are broken now - the memories she's left us will eventually bring a smile back to us all.
Condolence to her family.

I better make something of it - cause the in-between is MINE!!!

What a beautiful group of loving fans. Laura was a beautiful, kind, young, inspirational person. We would have never had the pleasure of meeting you if it wasn't for this band, and the few "hippies" spreading the jam and love. It was a pleasure having you on the Given To Fly bus in Toledo, where we met. May you be singing beautiful music with the angels, because you too are one of them. Much love, and prayers for your family. God Bless.
I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me...GUARANTEED!
Laura and I at the CCFA Benefit before the Toronto 2005 show. It's better quality than this, but I have to get it scanned. I don't have a scanner, but I have one at work. So I took a picture of a picture, but it needed to be posted.

Just remembered.. in March of this year, Laura shaved her head to support St. Baldrick's Foundation in helping to research/find a cure for children's cancer... also to support fellow fan Shana and her daughter Mackenzie...

I miss her so much. My best friend for 5 great years. Her memory is everywhere I look. She was such a huge part of my life that there are so many things in this darn room that remind me of her. The countless things she sent me, things we had in common, things that were her idea/suggestion, etc. I am grateful for all of it, and I'm grateful to have had such a wonderful person and friend as a part of my life. Twas truely the most rewarding friendship I've ever had. And I just to dear god that I held up my end of this friendship. One day soon, all of these things, thoughts, memories will make me smile. And I will cherrish them forever. But right now, all I do is look around this darn room and I can't stop crying...
what a wonderful person she was...
and she left such positive energy behind.
let's use that energy to do something good.
big or small... do something positive in her memory.
hugs to all who lost such a special friend.
i'm almost envious you all got to know her..
i truly lost out.
thanks for sharing the photos...she was beautiful.

I just heard. Laura was an inspiration, both in how she dealt with her sickness and also in her day to day way she carried herself. She'll be missed, and im pretty sure she's already affecting whoever she's with now exactly the same she affected all of us. Be sound Laura.
I'll be dedicating my little gig tonight to her. She'd have liked that, I think.

I deepest felt condolences to Laura's family.
Laura will never be forgotten, I'm sure that the same way she touched so many of us here she did out in the rest of the world throughout her life...
Urs,
goodbye Laura.. I have been missing you
Yes we did.
I was saddened to hear of Hippiemom's passing. My thoughts are with her family.
Goodbye Hippiemom....
Another habit says its long overdue
Another habit like an unwanted friend
I'm so happy with my righteous self
Laura, I love you and I miss you.

I don't post like I used to but I always enjoyed talking with her on the board and she will be missed.

Always count on a hippie to unite people.
Skitchy
Awwhotdog
Cajun Fish
Edzeppe

Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
i think there is change in the winds...
remember; she is home...and dancing freely, looking at the ones she loves..a true living angel....she has touched.....
a derivitive of nature.
nature is god
god is love
love is light
Do something that would make her smile
i wish i would've known her.
what a wonderful person she was...
and she left such positive energy behind.
let's use that energy to do something good.
big or small... do something positive in her memory.
