Laura was always happy and willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. She genuinely cared for the people in her life and their loved ones. She loved to entertain, she enjoyed every opportunity to be with family, friends, colleagues and former classmates.
Laura had a deep appreciation for film, music, travel, and always loved discovering new things to enjoy, near home, in Chicago and around the world.
Laura was passionate about the beauty of this world in art and nature and always tried to surround herself and those she loved with what she discovered. Words also cannot express how blessed we were to have had her in our lives.
