I just found out, I saw her house boarded up in Harvey, and was sad to hear about her passing. I was friends with her and helped her when she was trying to save her Morgan Park house. I remember seeing all her cats too. She will be missed...

My condolences to the family and friend of Laurel. Earth has no sorrows that our father in heaven can not heal. Look to the heals from which comes your health, for health and strength comes from the Lord.
I will truly miss Laurel. RIP I will always love you.
