A.J. and Laurie's family, I send my sympathy in the loss of your mom and sister. Laurie and I were classmates at Lake Michigan Catholic and later A.J. and my son,Rob, were classmates also at LMC.. I have many happy memories of our friendship over the years, including her beautiful smile. I will keep her and all of you in my prayers.

Bonnie I know it has been a long time and so sorry to read about your sister. I remember meeting her many years ago. I looked to see if I had your number but alas no longer so couldn't contact you personally. My condolences to your family for this great loss and hopefully time will heel the pain.

Dear Gary and Bonnie,
I went to high school with Laurie. She and I were in the same graduating class. We were also neighbors on Polfus drive during childhood. Somewhere in all of my parents' stacks of pictures I have a photograph of Laurie at my birthday party when we were about 5 or 6 years old. Hopefully I can find it and somehow post it on this website. I also remember going to House of David to listen to Bonnie play the accordion. Bonnie was very good. I was sad and shocked to hear Laurie had passed away. I kept looking for her obituary all week and in the process discovered that another neighbor from Polfus Drive who was the brother to a middle school friend of mine had passed away. Three people from Polfus drive passed away that same week. The third one was my father. When I was out at my Dad's house Saturday his neighbors, Al and Debbie Zaveral, stopped by. I was telling him about the three people from Polfus and mentioned Laurie's maiden name. Then I found out from Al that Gary is married to Al's sister. Small world! Al shared that Laurie's obituary was in the paper that day. Laurie was always a very nice person. I know you will miss her. You and your family and her close friends have my sincere sympathy.

I send my deepest sympathy to the family especially AJ. AJ and I worked together when he was the Soccer Coach at Coloma High School and I was the Athletic Secretary. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
