Family Promises is a collection of poems that are like prisms that reflect Laura's unique blend of humor, irony and clarity. Her signature style of irreverence and honesty are in full display as she faces life's challenges without flinching. She bravely attempts to triumph over insurmountable losses with her sardonic tone and grace. It is astonishing how Laura manages to merge heartbreak with laughter in every poem. The legacy of her enduring voice resonates throughout this exquisite posthumous volume.
