John and Barbara,
I was grieved to read of Laura's passing today.  Although I only knew her during the brief time Warren attended Harris Hill, I was taken by her determination and joy of living that brightened any room she was in.  
I wish you,  her family and her larger church family peace.

Dear Barb,

My sincerest sympathies to you and your family for the unfathomable loss of precious Laura. I know my daughter Jessica will miss her at HCS.

Barb & Family,

So very sorry for the passing of your daughter. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you… may she rest in peace.

Dearest DeLong Family,

Praying you find peace in your faith and beautiful memories with sweet Laura. She was a dolly full of spunkiness and joy. She took part in every aspect of her high school classroom from her prom to celebrating her birthday sharing her favorite tacos! Laura loved her friends so much. We were blessed by knowing her. 
Rest loving angel, your Heavenly Father has a special Oreo cake just for you.

My heart goes out to your family for this terrible loss. Thank you for all that your whole family has done on behalf of people with IDD. 

Words cannot express the sadness we feel for the DeLong family in the loss of their beloved daughter.  Our heartfelt prayers and sympathy go out to them at this difficult time.

My life was brightened my having the pleasure of having such a beautiful young lady in it. I'm sure God's garden is brightened by having this beautiful flower in it. My deepest sympathy to Barb, John, and  Andrea

Dearest Barbara, my deepest condolences to you, Jon and Andrea on the passing of your beloved Laura. Indeed taken too young, too soon.
May choirs of angels sing Laura to her rest, safe in the palm of His hands. He has taken one of his angels home, in Laura.

My heart goes out to you with complete empathy. We are not meant to bury our children.  You and the family are in my thoughts and prayers. 

Barb and Jon,

Our deeply felt condolences to you and your family.  

While we are fairly new to the advocacy family which you have guided, we have experienced your strength, determination and caring and we pray that those gifts continue to carry you through this loss. 

All of our thoughts and our prayers.  
Carlene and Mark 

We are saddened by the death of Laura. She exuded such a bright light and warmth. We admire the extraordinary advocacy that Barb and her family have demonstrated over the years, especially more recently. The love and care they have shown Laura is deep and surely admirable. We send our love and prayers.  Countless people have been able to enjoy their best lives because of the Delong Family’s tireless advocacy. 

Dear Barb, 

Please except my profound sympathy for your loss.  I can’t imagine the pain of losing a child.

Laura’s life,  while too short, was blessed by having a loving family and a fierce advocate for a mom. 

Sincere condolences,
Margaret Raustiala
