Laura Smith was a god-send to me in the years after my dad passed away. She was a second mom and even though she was incredibly busy with her kids and house, always had time for kind words in her kitchen. I’m forever grateful that I knew you and thanks to all the family for including me in your family! Love to all of you!

This describes Laura perfectly.
I have sorrow for her family.
I am sure your grief is deep, because your love for her is deep, she lives on, deep in your heart and soul.

I grew up on Bedford 2 houses down from the Smith's. They were like my second family! I ate dinners there more than my own home, The Smith's were always there when you needed them. My heart felt condolences and prayers for the Smith family. We all lost David not long ago, and we all miss him still.
Love George, Lisa , and Georgie Garcia

I grew up on Bedford next to the Smiths. Just a couple of houses down. I loved Paul he was such a jokester and always had a smile. Laura was always so kind, yet spunky. She made me feel like a part of the family. Laura welcomed me into her home, gave me her advice, and let me sleep on the couch whenever I needed while growing up. I will always remember them both with love, grace, and kindness. ❤️My heartfelt condolences to the family.
