As I was out walking Toby today, I was reminded, as I often am, of Laura and the many times we walked the neighbourhood with our little dogs.  Emma and Toby were good friends too.  She was a good neighbor and passing her house reminds me of how sweet and gentle she was. She treasured her friends and family as we treasured her.  She is not forgotten.  

I was deeply saddened to hear of Laura's passing. Laura and I worked together many many years ago at Prodanchuk Dickson. She was an extremely hard worker, kind and generous, and exceptionally smart. She was a joy to work with. We became friends and shared many lunches together. We kept in touch for a number of years, sadly the last few only by the occasional phone call.  My condolences to Laura's family.

Laura was my long time legal assistant and, more importantly, she was my friend of many years.  There are not words enough to detail the wonderful qualities of this amazing lady, both professionally and personally.  She was loved, and will be missed, by many, many people.  We are among them.  Rest easy now, dear friend, rest easy.

Ron Everard & Joyce Gallinger.

Although we didn't keep in touch over the years, I remember the fun times we had when Laura, Joan and I went out for our dinners.  So sorry to hear of your passing.  Mary

Laura you are now at peace.   Enjoyed working with you and the long lunches with Millie.  My thoughts and prayers go out to your wonderful family.    

Laura left us a legacy of compassion, kindness and love.    She had a quiet inner strength that she shared with all of us. My heartfelt sympathy and much love to the family and to Laura’s special caregiver, Emily, who made Laura smile with her funny stories.
