On Sunday, December 29th Laura was driving her pregnant daughter to the Northfield Hospital as she was having birthing contractions. The fog was extremely dense during this time. Laura was driving NB on HWY 3 between Faribault and Northfield. While driving, Laura’s vehicle was hit by a John Deer Tractor that was traveling SB on HWY 3 and made a left hand turn, hitting the driver side of her vehicle. Due to the impact from the crash, Laura later died at the hospital. Her daughter suffered minor injuries and later delivered her healthy twin boys.
Laura was an amazing wife, mother (three sons and two daughters), grandma (nine grandchildren) and friend to many. She was such a kind woman and the first one to help in anyway she could.
Any monetary donations will go towards funeral expenses as this was obviously an unexpected tragedy. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers as we navigate the tough days ahead.
