Lauren’s celebration of life was held February 22, 2014 at Laguna Creek High School, her alma mater. The school celebrated her life with the choir singing songs, the swim team helping to greet guests, the color guard presenting the flag, ASB setting up the gym and multi-purpose room, and the activities director and principal organizing and attending the entire event. Lauren would have been so honored. The attached video was made by the Laguna Creek High School Video Club. Special thanks to Nicole Skinner, Class of 2014, who made the film possible.

The Not-Dying Girl 
Dear Lauren’s Family,
I am truly so sorry for your loss. I cannot even imagine what it is like to lose a child. I lost my dad to cancer last May and I still think of him everyday. Cancer sucks, but it gave you this awesome community with awesome people. I don’t know you but I am here for you. You can read my blog: copingwithcancer.org. It might be helpful. I wish you the best of luck with everything and I know Lauren is now in a better place.
Love,
Samira
RIP Lauern.
Prayers to family and friends.
It stated family would be in Hells kitchen tonight 11/19/14. I must have missed that part. I did watch.the.memorial at the school. My only negative comment would be; Why the kid had sunglasses on while sing inside gymnasium. To me that was disrespectful to Lauren. Almost like he was trying to stand out.
