We have lost one of our best friends.
Our friendship started when we were very young, thru double dating, marriages, having children the same ages, many fun parties and many heartaches shared. Even when we moved to Florida Laura & Tom visited us several times. We were always together, the four of us and we will miss Laura so much. She could always supply you with dates of births, marriages, graduations, etc. We knew where to check if in doubt.
Our best to all the family. We watched you grow along with our own. Hope we keep in touch. We miss your Mom already. Our love to you all. Larry & Marifran Smith
