I only knew Laura from the dog run. She and her Dog JT (named for James Taylor) used to be regulars there. She was kind and sweet, and she always let my dog, Scooter, kiss her. She sat on the first bench and enjoyed the friendship we all feel in the run. We have raised money, and in the spring will dedicate a bench in her name. This way, she will always be a part of the run. Laura, you are missed.

Even though I never met you, I found out through your bio that you were born 41 plus years ago in White Plains, New York. So was I. May you find peace even though you left this earth in such a tragic way. God bless your family.
