Laura Lillian Grace was born July 31, 1935, near Truman, Minn. She was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran faith. Following her graduation in the top ten of her class from Truman High School in 1953, she married Lyle Albert Greiner on Oct. 24, 1953, at Zion Lutheran Church in Lewisville.

Laura enjoyed doing crafts, such as sewing clothing and quilts for her family, counted cross-stitch, weaving rugs and baking and decorating cakes.
