Although it's already been said, it really is true, Lauren was one of the funniest and strongest people I have ever met. Her laughter was contagious and her love for life inspiring. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to know Lauren. I think of many great memories and picture her smiling face. She will never be forgotten. I love you and miss you Lauren. I pray for strength for all family and friends of Lauren during this time.
Sincerely,

I started at Hunting Ridge with Lauren where she was always known as "Lauren G" and me, "Lauren H." Throughout elementary school to high school we were in the same class more times then not. Her amazing sense of humor will truly be missed. My thoughts are with the Guignon family.

I have not seen Lauren for many years now but we used to raise a little hell back in high school. ;)I will always remember nights in the hot tub, summer vacation to Florida and scarfing mini muffins after class. Lauren was a fun, good spirited, go with the flow gal who will truly be missed. My heart goes out to the Guignon's and my prayers will be with them.
