She graduated from Brentwood High School in 1978 and attended Indiana University of Pennsylvania. She married the love of her life in 1981, and gave birth to six wonderful children.

Laura is also survived by over 73 nieces and nephews. She was one tough old bird with the Spartan fight in her. Family suggests contributions to the American Cancer Society in Laura's memory.
