With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our cherished friend and sister, Laurel C. Rajunas on June 1, 2024. Laurel was a native of Boston who came to Atlanta in 1980, and worked for 38 years as an extraordinary critical care nurse at Emory University Hospital. Laurel passed after a brief, but vigorous battle with cancer. Laurel is deeply mourned by many close friends, her former partner Ira J. Isaacson, MD, and her sister Susan and brother Jon. Laurel’s love for her cats Itty Bitty, Sigrid, and Freyja was unconditional. We will always carry Laurel’s memory in our hearts.
Donations to “Alley Cat Allies” in honor of Laurel’s memory are welcome.
