I am Laurie's daughter, and this is probably the final message that will be given on her deviantART account.
Laurie went into a coma on the 5th of July 2009. She was taken off of life-support on Friday July 10th, 2009.
This is her obituary:
Laurie Ann Benjamin Grover, 46, of Austin passed away unexpectedly on July 10. Laurie was the loving mother to her three beautiful children, Michael Thomas, Jennifer Lauren, and Caroline Elyse and dedicated wife to Thomas Carl Grover for 29 years. Also survived by her parents Linda and Arthur Benjamin, brother, Michael Benjamin, and countless other family members and friends. Laurie was born in Cheyenne, Wyoming on June 17, 1963 and moved to Clear Lake City, TX where she attended high school. After marrying Tom, they moved to Beaumont and then to Austin in 1984. Laurie was intelligent and passionate about her family and her many hobbies. Laurie was an accomplished artist, interior decorater, jelwery designer, and entrepeneur selling some of her beautiful works at the 6th Street Art Festival. Laurie cherished her family, her home, and her precious kitties. She and her family were members of Celebration Church in Georgetown. Laurie was taken far too soon but we realize that we will be with her again.

Rest in Peace
I would personally like to thank all of the wonderful people her at dA that she called her friends. I would also like to thank you for your caring and support in the matter of her illnesses.

A Pause in Time
To be happy in life like a cat. I must take a Paws, in life and art.
I have no idea how long it will be before I am back up and posting. I will be checking in.
I am going to be out -surgery on Monday to do a full replacement of my knee. I have lots of friends and family for support.
I want to let all of you here know what a wonderous community DA has- :)
I will begin featuring some of the artist I have collected their works in FAV's this summer. I will try to contact before posting works and a short article about them.
To understand art is to sometimes be able to peer into the soul of the creator. Careful not to see to much, not to loose
Sale needed on all artworks-
Hello,
I really feel bad but if anyone would like to purchase any artworks please let me know :)(Shameless self promotion- only out of need) only out of need Sorry- which I understand that many of you have needs too. These are not the easiest times we live in.
May of you know about my on -going health issues- my vision is a day to day thing- two doctors day retina and another says shots in the eyes- my eyes will be placed on temporary hold.;( Double sometimes worse vision.
I have to have my knee replaced completely in a couple od weeks like about 2 - I have Rhematoid Arthritis (migraines; Supra Ventracular Tachacardia; Asthma; no gallblad
Peace In the Middle East? Shall it Happen?
I wonder?
Can be be?
True you say?
They think it has a chance?
If so, will it last?
Here in America we are not told the whole story and I admit some of it happened before my time. I am home schooling my children and from my oldest to my youngest - they have asked me "Why do they fight?"
I said because the religion means to much to many and because of strong religious beliefs. Then I began to wonder I really do not know why, I have read my bible and other bibles (Koran), History books which I feel leave a lot of the facts out.
I got thinking I must not be the only one who wants to know and does not understand the issues here.
My heart
DA is a PRON site (PORN) It's a crying shame!
A question was polled and this is a copy of my response to the idea- many will disagree after all the site is called DeviantArt,
These are other words for Deviant- however I believe the original meaning was to be different and to have art that differed from the norm - the artworks here are not typical! Surley this is not to give a haven to the sexual deviants, in a cloak and dagger (thinly disguised) hidden format.
Noun 1.
deviant - a person whose behavior deviates from what is acceptable especially in sexual behavior degenerate, deviate, pervert
fetishist - one who engages in fetishism (especially of a sexual nature)
masochist - someon
