I know words seem so futile right now. Laura was a shining star and an inspiration to so many. I shared many conversations with Laura about my healthcare and about her struggles. Lots of times I knew she felt worse than I did, but she persevered and always put her patients first. So many lives have been touched and enriched by having known her. May God bless you all in the days to come.

I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I never physically met Laura but I spoke to her often and felt like I knew her forever. I remember our last conversation, I am thankful for the opportunity to have gotten to know her. She was a very sweet lady and she made a lasting impression. May she rest in peace.

Laura was there for us when Charley had an allergic reaction to a bee sting while hiking on a Saturday. She posted a prescription and immediate first aid, potentially saving a severe reaction. All the while she showed via phone what compassion can really mean in the healing process. She was also such a friend during our visits to Dr. Byrd's office. She made the environment of his office so very pleasant and caring.

Laura was a light in our lives. She combined compassion in her perfect professionalism. She brightened each time we visited Dr. Byrd's office. We will miss Laura so very much. Our deepest condolences to her family. Thank you, Laura, for all you were to us.

I am so sorry to hear of Laura's passing. My thoughts and prayers will be with you during this difficult time..

My sincerest sympathy to all in Laura's family. I pray God will hold you in His hands until you see her again. Her smile, bounce in her step, and warmth will be missed when all go to Dr. Byrd's office now.

I always looked forward to seeing Laura when I had an appointment. She was always smiling, always so helpful and kind. I will miss seeing her there but I do have peace knowing that she is now in heaven with our Father and I will see her again one day. The family and friends of Laura are in our thoughts and prayers.

My deepest sympathies to the entire family, we are praying for you during this difficult time.

I was so sorry to hear of Laura passing. I remember her from going to church with her and the Jackson family at Bethel Weselyan. I also went to school with Charles. My daughter Michele McMinn worked with her for a short period at Dr. Bryds offfice and was very fond of her. May God be with you and console you in the time of sorrow. Your family will be in my prayers. We will celebrate her life and look forward to a wonderful reunion one day. God Bless you and comfort you as only he can.

My deepest condolences to the Hartsook family, may you find comfort in prayer and the beautiful words of Isaiah 25:8 where God promises us that He will soon eliminate all death and suffering.

She will be missed...... You are in our prayers that God will help you through this difficult time.

thank you Laura of the memories of being young and the friendship while getting older, you will be greatly missed.Our hearts, thoughts and prayers for Ron and family.

Laura was a wonderful friend to our family. The article written about her is so true. She was with my family when I was critically ill She took the time to take my husband to lunch during that time which meant a lot to him. My prayers are with the family during this time.

Although I lived out of town, I knew Laura and Dr Byrd were taking good care of my mom, Sue Hensley. It is such a comfort knowing your love ones are being cared after by those as dedicated as Laura. She touched so many lives that she didn't even know with her loving service to those in need.

My heart goes out to all Laura's family, most especially her parents, Ron and the children and her sister along with the friends she blessed along the way. I knew Laura through Jessica and Kip and then Maya. What an incredible friend in the best ways. We are all heartbroken, as she left us way too soon, but comforted in knowing her struggles and pain are over. There isn't enough space or words to express all the beautiful things Laura was. Ron and Koty and so many others have said it well. Grateful she came into OUR lives. Many memories to keep forever. Love and prayers to all. We have another, very precious Angel watching over us.

Laura was a very special person! If there were more people in the world like her, it would be a much better place to live!! I'll always remember her kindness & she will be missed by many. ❤️

Laura was a true gift to the nursing profession and to all she touched. We can all aspire to be the kind and loving person that she was. She will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with the whole family. Let God guide you through this hard time. Ron you will have alot of great memorys in your heart. Those will never go away. Hold on to them because they will be your comfort. You will see her again. I will be thinking of you and all your family. Love to you Brianna and Koty.

My sincere sympathy to Laura's loved ones. So saddened to learn Laura has completed her earthly journey and know that she will be missed. As the sole caregiver for my aging mother, Laura became my ROCK through many events; so knowledgeable, so caring, so reassuring and always going beyond what was even thought possible. Will forever be grateful for the love and care she provided during a difficult time…truly an angel who walked among us and so thankful to have been touched by her.

Prayers to the Family! Went to school with Laura and she was always a joy to be around!

I never had the pleasure of meeting Laura but, truly wish I had. Prayers for her family and countless friends...

So sorry for your loss.. Prayers fir all..

She was the kindest nurse that I had the pleasure of meeting. She will be sorely missed. RIP

I grew up working in the same office as Laura through middle school and high school. So I was a witness to her unmatched commitment to her patients, which included much of my family. In all my life I've never known anyone so devoted to the work of serving others. I will remember her smile, intelligence, and laughter and will be praying for her sweet family.

God has another beautiful Angel. Who more than earned her wings! She was one of the most caring, loving, giving , thoughtful and generous people I have ever known. She was such comfort and showed her aunt Rhee how much she was loved. She helped me too. Paul and I are praying for God to help you all. Charles and Jean we can not know how hard this is for you all and Paula. We love you all as our own, we wish we could be with you all but Paul is still not up to the trip. I am here if I can do anything at all.

I have known Laura around 38years .we grew up watching each others awkward teenage years and into adulthood.tree only difference in us was I thought she did all those years so much more gratefully than I. She is and has always been beautiful inside and out,a special rare quality not found often.my thoughts and prayers are worth her family.God's speed riding that rainbow to Heaven Laura. Rest in peace

Koty, you are in my heart and prayers, as well as the rest of your family. I am so very sorry for your loss.

May GOD bless you and your children with peace in knowing that this is only a temporary goodbye and that he will reunite you in his time! Praying for each and everyone of you during this sad time.

Ron and family, I am so sorry for your heartbreaking loss. Although Laura and I have not been in contact for several years, I thought of her often. I am so sorry she had to endure suffering and pain and I am sorry for the pain her family has to face.

God bless each and everyone of Laura*s family. watched her grow up and become the beautiful person she became. Will miss that beautiful smile

Paula and family, So sorry about the loss of your sister. My thoughts and prayers are with you all!

My heart just aches for you all. I will be praying for your family as you go through this difficult time. Laura was such a big part of my high school days. She was the little sister of my best friend who seemed to always be right there to see what we were up to. My last memory of Laura was when I received a bad diagnosis. She was working at the doctor's office that day and gave me a big hug and encouraging words. I will hold that dearly in my heart. She was such a beautiful person inside and out.

So sorry for your loss. We will be praying for your family during this difficult time. May God wrap his loving arms around each and every one of you.

Ron and family - Please know our prayers are with you!

So hard to say goodbye for now. Enjoy your wings. You've always had thrm, even as a little girl. I loved spending summers with you and Paula. Enjoying family time, playing in the garden, eating Aunt Pauline ' green beans and a ride with Uncle Plato. Your parents, Jean and Charles were always so full of love and showed us all how to love one another. Now as adults I pray our children have learned from us. I am happy to know that you are no longer in pain and that you will always be a part of my life. Until we are together again, I Love You. Always have. Always will. Your cousin Pattie
