In her memoir, My Father’s List: How Living My Dad’s Dreams Set Me Free, she recounts that incredible journey.But this is more than a story about crossing things off a list. It’s about grief, healing, and discovering personal purpose through inherited dreams.

From meeting President Carter to writing to the Pope, Laura’s story is one of resilience, transformation, and hope.bylauracarney.com
