Laura was a member and president of the Baton Rouge Garden Club for over 20 years and loved traveling with her friends all over Louisiana judging "Cleanest City" and making new friends. Not one to stay still for long, Laura also loved dancing, crafting, gardening and playing Bouree' and poker every chance she had. Laura loved entertaining and never met a holiday she didn't celebrate. She was one of the sweetest, kindest, most loving people you could ever meet, she never met a stranger and would give the shirt off her back if she felt someone else needed it.
