YOU did not know me but I knew you. rip for your cousin Theresa LAURENT Duhon.
My heart goes out to the family and close friends of Chandler. The last time that I saw him was last month at Kim's Birthday party and he was throwing the football with my son. I did not know him well, because I am few years older than him, but just from reading all of the comments and seeing all of the pictures, I could see that he was a very handsome and full of life young man and loved by so many. I pray that you all receive comfort and healing from losing such a special person in your life.

Ms Madeleine and Family - May your memories bring you comfort at this very difficult time. With our deepest sympathies and prayers.
Madeleine and Jimmy,
My thoughts go out to you and the entire Laurent family. Chandler was an incredibly genuine, thoughtful, and big-hearted individual. He always spoke so highly of you both, not to mention his brothers, sister, and nieces and nephews, that it was plainly evident that he was as proud of each of you as you were of him. He will be missed and will never be forgotten.

My deepest prayers go out to the Laurent family. It was a joy and honor to call Chandler a teammate and friend. He was a great person to know and will be surely missed. I'm deeply saddened knowing that he was taken from us too soon, but know he will be watching over all of us. God bless Donk.
I had the great pleasure of training Chandler at Franco's and BQuick Athletic Development. There was nothing that young man couldn't do. He was an incredible athlete that loved to please. I feel privileged to have known him. My deepest sympathy to the Laurent family. This world lost a good one. May the lord bless all of those who loved and knew Chandler.
Dear Madeline and Jimmy and family, you are in my heart and prayers. Praying that our Lord will put his arms around you and give you peace. Jan Chabreck
I was so sad to hear the news of Chandler and my heart goes out to his family and friends. I had the pleasure of meeting Chandler several years ago when he came to the Fontainebleau High beginning baseball practices before leaving for his professional baseball duties. He was such a pleasure to be around and a class act. A young man that every coach loves to coach and mentor. He too, was a mentor to lots of our ball players and well respected. His life was to short, but I know God will love having him on his team! Coach Mike Lavin
Chandler you will be truly missed. I only had the pleasure of spending one season with you in Casper, but you were the definition of a great teammate and friend. The world lost a wonderful human being but heaven is definitely getting a deserving Angel.
