This was my sister and we live in Canada. She was a Canadian and very much loved by her family and her husband Travis.
She loved to bike and was with her husband at the time. She will be missed dearly.
She gave to the world and could not have been a better person to see go.
She loved the area she was biking in and said it was the most beautiful place in the world.
Please remember her,
Laura MacKay, Age 37, Wife to Husband Travis Eltom.

I first met Laura when she was 9. She was a fine young woman, loved and respected by all who knew her. Her untimely death is a blow to us all. The world needs more people like Laura - kind, giving, concerned and sweet. My thoughts now are with the family and of course with Travis.
