Godspeed, LaurieB

Postby Koolkat » Mon Jun 08, 2020 9:14 pm

It has been reported on FB that LaurieB has died due to breast cancer. This is from "Tell Us About You" from above.

I was LaurieB on UDBB.

Mid 40's veterinarian (small animal). From Maine but live in Columbus, OH.

Rode somewhat seriously as a kid. Had many years out of the saddle, and began riding again in 2004-ish?

Have had my pony for almost 10 years.

I still suck at riding but am getting better.

LaurieB was an amazing woman. She was very helpful to me when I got my own breast cancer diagnosis.
I had just spoken with her a few weeks ago. When the cancer came back to her bones, she had her horse retrained to drive so that she could still enjoy horse sport.
As a canine neurologist, she was also very helpful to me when Sadie, my AmStaff was diagnosed with cerebellar abiotrophy.

The world has lost an amazing woman.
She will be missed.

My prayers go out to all who knew and loved LaurieB. May she rest peacefully now.
