Mom was a homemaker her entire life. Laurel had several jobs before leaving Denver; worked for Montgomery Wards, an insurance company, and a law office.
My mom had a talent for painting in oils and water color. She painted landscapes and people having fun. She was very talented. Mom gave her heart to the Lord at age 99. Thank you, Jesus.
Laurel devoted her life to supporting Ed and their family. She was a wonderful wife, mom, grandmother (referred to lovingly as “Mamo”), and to her Great grand children as “Great Mamo.”
Mom had a long, loving, productive run. We will miss you.
