Donald and Laurel Huibregtse

We were saddened to hear to the horrific accident that claimed the life of Laurel and shortly thereafter, Don. I am certain that you didn't expect your mother to die as well as your father. I spoke with son Don last week, spoke with Laurel just a few days ago and also visited Don at Hospice where my husband also is. George and Don were Optimist friends and golfing friends. Your family has our deepest sympathy.

I first new Laurel as a capable and dedicated food service director at MG schools. Later, our paths crossed at the bridge able at various duplicate games in Monona and Madison. We both were partners of Phyllis Graham and eventually Laurel and I became regular partners. She was a very capable bridge player and always a pleasant, fun partner across the table. Laurel was a kind person and I always enjoyed playing with her. We also liked to exchange book titles...she tipped me off to many a good read. I also remember seeing Laurel and Don trekking up the stairs at Camp Randall to their seats for home games, as we sat in the same section. We would wave and cheer every time the Badgers would get into the end zone! I'm so saddened over the loss to your family. Laurel and Don were good, solid people and they will be missed. Our sincere condolences are extended to you. Martha and Dean Brusegar

Our deepest sympathy goes out to the family of Laurel and Don. My parents are Bob and Doris Pulling. I remember, on so many occasions, Don and Laurel gathering with their "group" as I looked on. They had so much fun. Don and Laurel spent many moments with my Dad when he had cancer. I wish you so many wonderful memories or your parents and loved one as they journey together for eternity in the only perfect world. Lovingly, Emil and Nancy

Bruce, I am really sorry for your family's loss. Your parents must have loved one another so much that they knew their time on earth would end together. I am sure you are exhausted both physically and emotionally. Be sure to rely on your family and friends to help you recover and continue to share your bright spirit with everyone around you. Deck

My heart is heavy over the loss of two very dear friends. Please know that they, and the entire family, are in my thoughts and prayers. Mary
