'''[[Laura Roslin]]'s father''' was survived by [[Laura Roslin's mother|his wife]], with whom he had three daughters: [[Laura Roslin|Laura]], [[Cheryl Roslin|Cheryl]] and [[Sandra Roslin|Sandra]].  
'''[[Laura Roslin]]'s mother''' was a teacher prior to dying from breast cancer, and the mother of three daughters: [[Laura Roslin|Laura]], [[Cheryl Roslin|Cheryl]] and [[Sandra Roslin|Sandra]].  


After his wife's death by cancer, he and his two daughters (Cheryl and Sandra) were killed in a car accident the night following the end of Sandra's baby shower by an intoxicated driver, leaving Laura Roslin the sole surviving member of her family {{TRS|Daybreak, Part I}}.  
Before succumbing to cancer, she was a teacher who was reputedly well loved. Upon being diagnosed, she engaged in [[Doloxan]] treatments; the effects of which initially dissuade her daughter, Laura, from pursuing that line of treatment and into an [[Chamalla|alternative treatment]] ([[TRS]]: "[[Act of Contrition]]", "[[Faith]]").
 
According to Laura, Ms. Roslin was a strong believer in the [[Lords of Kobol (RDM)|Lords of Kobol]]. Before her death, Roslin believed that [[Aphrodite]] would "swoop her away" before death and the [[Fields of Elysium|Fields of Elysium]] would await her. Laura believes she never made it there, but later believes otherwise after she "sees" that Roslin made it to Elysium, following [[Emily Kowalski]]'s reunion with her own family there ([[TRS]]: "[[Faith]]").
 
After Ms. Roslin's death, her husband and two daughters (Cheryl and Sandra) were killed in a car accident, leaving Laura Roslin the only survivor of her family ([[TRS]]: "[[Daybreak, Part I]]").
 
==Notes==
*According to the [[series bible]], Laura Roslin's mother's name was Judith, but this was never stated onscreen or in credits, and other statements from the bible have been contradicted.
