"Think of Laura" has a relatively straightforward arrangement, with the singer's vocals and a piano accompaniment. Ĭarter's shooter, Gordon Newlin, served time for the shooting. Cross wrote the song as a way of offering comfort to McNinch, and honoring Carter's memory. McNinch was pictured on the inner sleeve of the Another Page album, sitting on a stool. Ĭross had met Carter through her college roommate Paige McNinch, whom Cross was dating at the time. Her family was visiting for homecoming, and had just watched Laura and her friends compete in a lacrosse match.
Ĭarter, a lacrosse player from Wayne, Pennsylvania, was sitting in the back seat of her father's car.
Cross wrote the song to mourn the death of Denison University college student Laura Carter, who was killed in Columbus, Ohio, when she was struck by a stray bullet during gunfire in a gang war.
