Laurel was born in Salt Lake City, Utah on November 19, 1959, to Howard LaVarr Roberts, Jr. and Laura Jo Phelps Roberts. She was the second of eight children born to the family. Laurel spent her early years in Mesa, Arizona and later Kanab, Utah, where she graduated high school in 1977. She attended Brigham Young University and married Jeffrey Mack Frost on August 17, 1979. Five children joined their home. After graduating with a degree in English in 1985, she and her family lived in several different places, the longest being nearly 30 years at their home in Hurricane, Utah.


Laurel was involved in many religious, community and ser­vice organizations throughout her life. In addition to exten­sive church service, she was also involved in Cub Scouting and Habitat for Humanity. She was a CASA vol­unteer and supported efforts to help expect­ant mothers keep their babies. Her favorite volunteer work was being a chorister for Primary children at church.


She was involved with many kinds of arts throughout her life. Laurel played the piano, wrote hymn texts and enjoyed working with compos­ers to create music. She was a gifted writer and an avid reader. She enjoyed scrapbooking and created pottery that she shared with her family and friends.


An exceptionally kind and patient per­son, Laurel had a gift to listen to others. She had a fun and playful sense of humor. She loved and sacrificed greatly for her family.
