Laurie Kopko Memorial Fund
Donation protected
Hello Friends,
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the sad news that Laurie passed away this morning, January 9th. She had such a vibrant light and spirit; it is hard to believe that light has gone out.
We will keep this fundraiser active for the next month to continue to support the Kopko family during this unimaginably difficult time.
"Grief is the price we pay for love."
- Queen Elizabeth II
In love and sadness,
Kelly and the Lesaffre Family
