Hi Laurence, I really hope that you are able to read this somehow or at least know what I think of you and what I feel in my heart for you. What a truly special human being you were and what a privilege it has been to have known you and to have been so close to you. The knack you had of making a room light up and making everyone in that room feel comfortable... with you and with each other. My family became your family without question, hesitation or reservation. You made Justine feel special and you looked out for her. You made me feel like fashion queen of NYC which is indeed a compliment since your fashion sense was withou question. Your dad and I used to joke about how many minutes it would take for you to comment on something we were wearing.... and your comments were always right on and always made to make us feel good. Sometimes we don't know what we have till it's gone. I didn't know how much I respected and adored you and how much I would miss you. You brought sunshine into my family's life and we will always think of you and smile. I pray that you are happy and are continuing to make others happy wherever you are. All our love, Iris, Ross, and Justine
