At the age of eighteen, Laura enlisted in the Navy and happily served for 11 years. Laura had a wonderful career for over twenty years at Varian Medical Systems. Her many friends and colleagues there became her extended family.
Laura had a passion for many things. She loved the outdoors, mountain biking, working with gemstones to make jewelry, but most of all she loved tennis. Seeing Laura on the courts for six hours at a time was not unusual. She will be remembered for her great sense of humor, her laugh and ceaseless energy.
Laura often said that she had accomplished everything she had ever dreamed of, had everything she had ever wished for, had the best boss in the world, and the most wonderful relationship with Doug.
The memorial service will begin at 1pm on Sunday May 2nd at Oak Hill Funeral Home, Chapel of the Oaks, 300 Curtner Ave., San Jose, CA 95125.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in Laura's name to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) http://www.nami.org.
Arrangements under the direction of Oak Hill Funeral Home & Memorial Park, San Jose, CA.
