Our sweet Laurie departed this worldly life entering her eternal reward, to dwell with her Lord and Savior, and be joined with her beloved mother and father, grandparents and loved ones.
Laurie battled life threatening traumas in early adolescence. The long term effects of heavy radiation and chemotherapy finally compromised her health beyond repair.
She leaves behind the loves of her life, her two precious children, Nicole, 18 and Grant, 14. Her family and friends are going to miss her beautiful smile, laughter, joy of life, her “bigger than life” heart and deep compassion for others.
Laurie was a full-time student at Johnston Community College, working toward a degree in Graphic Arts. “Miss Laurie” was loved by and an inspiration to the younger students.
A funeral service will be held in her honor on Saturday, September 25 at 2 pm at Brown-Wynne Funeral Home, 1701 E. Millbrook Rd, 27609. Interment will follow the service at Raleigh Memorial Park. The family will receive friends on Friday, September 24 from 7 -9 pm at the funeral home. Condolences may be sent at www.brownwynne.com.
