My beautiful first born child passed away on the 27th of April after a short but painful battle with
cancer.
Laurie was a beautiful, happy, outgoing friend to many. A treasured wife, daughter, sister, grand
daughter, auntie, neice and mum who leaves behind a devestated family.
Laurie's husband Mick was by her side day and night throughout her illness and cared for her
like nobody else could.
Laurie has a gorgeous son Jack and two beautiful step daughters, Kirstie and Sam who all now have a
hole in their lives that can never be filled.
We all miss her so very much and our lives are forever changed by her passing.
To my darling daughter, I find some comfort in knowing you are no longer in pain and I pray you are
in a better place with Nyah in your arms.
hello my beautiful wife feels like a life time since u were taken from me but feels like today that we kissed n cuddled n both said the words i love you . pains not going memories are hard struggling to forget how much you suffered and how quickly you were taken . i take heart in how brave and strong you were wish i had youre strength wish you were here wish it was me not you you deserved so much more want u back babe love u ten xxxxxxxxxx
I THOUGHT ...
I thought I saw your face today,
In the sparkle of the morning sun.
And then I heard the angel say, 'Their work on earth is done.'
I thought I heard your voice today,
Then laugh, your hearty laugh.
And then I heard the angel say, 'They are in peace at last.'
I thought I felt your touch today,
In the breeze that rustled by,
And then I heard the angel say, 'The spirit never dies.'
I thought I saw my broken heart
In the crescent of the moon.
And then I heard the angel say, ' The Lord is coming soon.'
I thought that you have left me,
For the stars so far above.
And then I heard the angel say, ' They left you with their love.'
I thought that I would miss you so,
And never find my way.
And then I heard the angel say, ' They're with you every day.'
The sun, the wind, the moon, the stars
Will forever be around, reminding you of the love, you shared,
And the peace, they've finally found.
Lau, I miss you so much, I am trying so hard to believe you are free from the pain that engulfed you.
I am struggling today to make sense of this cruel world, why you had to go, why Nyah had to go.......................and I cant Lau. I pray you are together and holding each other close , like we wish we could hold you. I love you Lau xxxxxxxxxxxx

I got a text earlier, your number is still in my phone and i nearly sent it to you as i always did when I had jokes or poems. It hurts knowing that I won't get a reply so I'm writing it here.
'It takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them but an entire lifetime to forget them'
That couldn't be more true.
i miss you Lau, the beer drinking, phonecalls, texts, BBQ's, I could go on but you get my drift.
Everyone is still grieving from you leaving us but i know you are no longer in pain but watching over us all.
I will support your family in every way i can.
We will meet up again one day face to face for that can of carling but until then I will appear at your gravside for a chat every now and then. xx
Missing You
Laurie, you will never know how hard it was to be at your funeral, to carry your coffin, to read the poem your loving sister wrote, to see the looks on the faces in the crowd. especially those of your adoring husband Mick and loving Mom, Shirley', the children, Jack, Kirstie and Sam and sister Kelsey and her man Spike, To take you on your last journey through the graveyard on that bumpy path so many have tread before us and then lowering you into your final resting place whilst listening to your brother, John, sobbing . Where was the sense, the rhyme the reason, who knows but having seen you only days before 'At rest' and the previous week in so much pain, I see that you had no choice, the pain was unrelenting and unforgiving. you needed to find peace, there was no treatment and you accepted that, knowing that those left behind were strong enough to care for each other and that your spititural presence will keep them going. You will never be forgottten. Sleep peacefully and watch over baby Nyah until we meet again. It was a real privelage to have known you. Uncle Alan
My sister
Lau, I am sitting here in tears cos it has suddenly hit me that you are never coming back, never to moan at me, never to pinch my sandals, never to spoil shelby when I say no.
We always fought as children (except when picking on John!) But as adults we became friends and for that I will be eternally grateful. Take care of Nyah for me Lau, I know you are together. I love you Lau, Kelsey xxx
