 Lauren Neale-MaySelf Eulogy
 English 1 September 11, 2000
 Lauren Neale-May was born June 9, 1986 in Stanford 
              Hospital, California. Her parents were Candace and Donovan Neale-May. 
              Lauren grew up in a very small town called Portola Valley in California. 
              She was a fan of soccer, basketball, and golf. As a child, Lauren 
              was active in choir and school activities. She was always on the 
              move and her parents later found out that she had ADHD. Lauren went 
              to Saint Joseph's school in California for nine years.  When Lauren became an adolescent, her parents 
              got divorced. When the time came for her to go to high school, she 
              decided to get out of California and move to New Hampshire to go 
              to the New Hampton School. As a student, she achieved great heights 
              as an honor roll student. She also became the radio station manager 
              and brought new ideas into the program.  After a successful career at New Hampton School, 
              Lauren then decided to move back to California and take pre-law 
              at UCLA. It as a great choice of Lauren's because she fit right 
              in. She even was in the newspaper for soccer. Next, Lauren then 
              continued her law career, and went to Harvard Law. Two years later 
              she passed the Bar on her first try.  Lauren then moved to San Francisco where she 
              started one of the world's best law firms and watched over her father's 
              PR firm. At the age of 26, she got married to a politician. Two 
              years later they had their oldest child John, and two years after 
              that their youngest child Mary. As the years went on, her husband 
              became senator and ran for President of the United States. He became 
              president much due to the help from his popular wife. Since Lauren 
              was the First Lady, she had to put someone in charge of her law 
              firm.  As the First Lady, Lauren did many things to 
              help this country's communities. Such as fundraisers and running 
              tons of fundraising marathons. She also talked to the people of 
              America and quickly became one of the most popular First Ladies 
              ever. After her husband's two terms in office, Lauren decided it 
              was time to retire. She gave her law firm to her son and daughter 
              to run. Then she moved to Hawaii, where she and her husband lived 
              for two months when unexpectantly she passed away.  Some people say that the part of not working 
              was what made Lauren die and I agree. Lauren just couldn't sit still 
              and not work as a lawyer or help people.            |
