After Laurie's friend Jessie Cocks set the mood for the service by chanting and drumming, friends, neighbors and colleagues began sharing stories of Laurie's kindness to people and animals, her gentle nature, her energy and single-minded determination, her fondness for coffee and long talks, and her self-agency and skill at networking and fundraising.
Whether she was leading 4-H programs for youth, taking a newly arrived immigrant under her wing, finding homes for stray dogs and cats, giving away "angel" ornaments, or just showing up and bringing light into someone's day, Laurie made a lasting difference in the lives of so many people.
