You were a shining star to all who knew you. Now your star shines down on us all from heaven.
Lauren was smart and sweet. She was captain of the girl's varsity volleyball team, of which her mother was the head coach. Lauren and her mother were very close. She was a member of the National Honor Society and had just returned from a class trip to England.
She had a future as a wildlife biologist waiting for her, following in the footsteps of one of her older brothers. Two students tried to help Lauren but it is suspected that she died instantly. The world feels the loss of this bright young woman.
