Grandma Laurie was an incredible woman. From the moment I joined the Pomeranz family, she was as warm and welcoming as anyone could be. She, along with her late husband, always treated me like one of their own, even if I wasn't related by blood. Her life was truly remarkable and I learned a lot from her. What an intelligent lady! She was also a fantastic cook. I had never had Yorkshire pudding before and I don't suppose I will ever have it again, but I will always remember it. And I will always remember her - a true Southern Matriarch of the highest degree and honor. I wonder if St. Peter has any idea how to cook green beans "like Grandma does." I suppose he's about to find out.

I am one of Annie Laurie's "Virginia cousins". She was a very family minded person who never forgot "her people". My sympathy to her children and to her surviving sister.

I babysat the kids for awhile and was not that much older then Rob or Suzanne at the time. Annie Laurie always remembered me and was very thoughtful. The last time I saw her was last year at my Uncle Lewis's funeral. She wanted to sing in the choir for him.The community will miss her.
