Laurissa Passed away Saturday at 4:53pm.with friends and family close by.She struggled hard the last few hours of life, but now a can take comfort in knowing my sweet angel Connie Jean is on a new journey with her Lord and Savior. I'm sure He has prepaired a welcome home party for her, with family and all who went before her,angels singing and all the animals and birds she loved to feed and care for are there also....I can't wait to see her again.But for now I have peace in knowing she is happy and pain free and with THE ONE who loves her most, Jesus... Spring in its self is a time of rebirth and renewal and Easter will be here.... and what a celebration that will be in Heaven. So it looks like my sweet Connie Jean (Laurissa) has made it HOME in time...Good bye my sweet sweet Angel. I love you and will hold you in my heart untill I to shall be welcomed home...Love ,Kathy Thank you all, her wonderful Pink sisters for helping her and being so kind and the prayers you sent forth, just being there for her meant so much,I will continue to pray for you all in the Pink sisterhood...and hope one day soon this ugly breast (cancer)is laid to rest.

    Tears in my eyes.I am glad she went quick but very upset she was in so much pain towards the end.Not fair.That is the time you beg they go.I remember a lady begging to die toward the end.Her family wanted the same.Laurissa will be missed by all of us.I didn't get to know her that well but I am hurt at her passing.Better go.Hard to see now.

    Kathy my deepest condolences to you and Connie's family
    Kathy
    I am very sorry for your loss. Connie Jean was an exceptional sister to us, very positive and kind. We joined this board at the same time in 2009, while I was already Chemo and radiation graduate. Having our journeys together has helped us comfort each other. She always were thinking of her family, daughters and friends. I am sure she will continue to watch over her family and pinks.
    Thank you for coming today. She is not suffering and at peace.

    My uncle, who is 80 also passed on Saturday from stomach cancer.
    It has been a difficult morning for me.

    Kathy... you are right. Connie Jean could not have picked a more perfect day to go home to be with our Lord. Spring has arrived and it is a time of renewal. Connie Jean has begun her new journey in heaven and, now, keeps watch over us as a guardian angel.

    God bless Connie Jean and her beloved Family.

    Hugs to you and yours.

    I will always remember Laurissa, we joined the same time
    and went thru chemo the same time. When I was too sick to post I always looked forward to reading Laurissa's posts, they made me feel better. She was my role model of sorts. While I find it too emotionally difficult to post anymore I keep up with everyone and am so saddened Laurissa has lost her fight. But I feel she is watching over all of her pink sisters from a way better place. My heart goes out to her friends and family.
