Looks like Lousiana lost a good journalist
I have rarely seen such a touching eulogy from a husband..

apparently this woman was a columnist for the paper and he filed her "last column for her"..

Puts it all in perspective for us.

Laurie’s face might not radiate to perfection the way it once did. The curves of her body may have melted to gaunt limbs. Her blue eyes may not shine with excitement and occasional mischief the way they did not so long ago. Still, Laurie has maintained a spiritual beauty from which lots of pretty faces could learn.

(...)

Until very recently she kept up with the news and displayed a passion for peace, justice and the kinds of social issues that form an intricate part of her faith. She has lived a Christianity that’s accepting, not judgmental. Part of her ongoing beauty has been ethics based on kindness and Christlike love, not a rigid set of rules.
