Dear Kohmetscher and Janda families, There is nothing that is sadder than this kind of death, let those around you keep you moving,,,
one foot in front of the other, and NEVER, NEVER, EVER give up.
RIP Laurie RIP.
You will know that 75@ of the people who give you sympathy will have experienced this in their life also in some aspect. You are not alone.
