My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family. LOVE YOU LAURA MAY YOU REST IN PEACE' Comment T Tammy Godley-Harrington January 16, 2024 10:08 AM To the family; I knew Ms. Laura from Floretta Imports, where I was the floral designer and bow maker. We got to know one another years ago, and I always enjoyed her coming in and our conversations. I remember when her granddaughter got married several years back, and Laura came in telling me about a luncheon, I believe, that she was giving in her honor. We had a great friend relationship. Prayers for you all during this difficult time- Comment B Bonnie & Lindsay Hodges January 16, 2024 7:26 AM Our thoughts and prayers are with the Whitaker family, may she RIP.. Comment K Kay and Jim Mitchell January 15, 2024 10:13 PM Our prayers for the entire family. A candle was lit in remembrance Comment S Steven Earl Cotner January 15, 2024 8:36 PM Hearing of this, my thoughts went to Mama's seeing her again. Mama use to do our banking where Laura worked for all these years. Once Mama passed, I've been doing the banking. Charles, we spoke about how you missed your customers and that you had to go back to work, because you couldn't watch but so much of a certain TV show. God Bless Y'all! Love Y'all!
