Please accept our sympathies on your terrible loss. With much love, Cathy, Jim, Hannah and Henry Rose

I can't express how my heart aches for you Mary,George, Ryan, Matt & Neil. Even though I have not been close in proximity I have been there in heart. Being apart of your lives since you were young adults, watching your family grow in numbers and in love. Our Lauren such a beautiful girl , coming to Kristens wedding, being apart of the family in such a mature , respectful,loving manner, it's a hard thing knowing she's gone. I will never forget her beautiful smile and face being here in Fl and treasure the fact that I had time (although short) to see her become a beautiful women. Mar, George, I send you my love and heartfelt sympathy. I will pray for you and your family that you find strength to conquer this tremendous loss and to keep her spirit close to you forever and ever. Her love and beauty will live in us forever.

To the Laman Family,
I last spoke with Lauren at the St. Charles East vs. St. Charles North basketball game. Lauren made it a point to find me and ask how Haines was doing. She was so excited to be going to Northern Illinois University. I immediately remembered her from her years at Haines. She was an incredible person to be around and the entire faculty and staff was devistated when we got the news. You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers. I am sorry this had to happen to Lauren. It truley is a loss.

Our family is so sorry to hear of your loss. Although we don't know your family personally, there are certain things that bind us all together - and the loss of a loved one is one of those things. My heart aches for you all. You can take some comfort in the fact that Lauren was such a loved & respected part of our community, not only by her family, but by the many friends that she had at school & beyond. I have been, and will continue to pray for peace and comfort for your family. You were and are blessed for having such a daughter.

George, Mary and your family, I want to extend our deepest condolences and tell you how sorry we were to hear the very sad news about Lauren. She became such a beautiful girl, her senior picture was so pretty. She was such a crazy girl back in the days of Bartlett Girls softball, even that travel tournament team where the girls lost all 5 tournaments but still had fun in the dugout.
Our hearts and prayers go out to your family. You have many friends here in Bartlett that share our
same sorrow. God Bless you all.
