Celebrate Laree's Life: Help Us Honor Her

Donation protected
Our mother, our creator, our rock passed away Monday December 23, 2024. This has been one of the hardest things and we are nowhere near even starting the grieving process. Her children would so like to honor her with a Celebration of .
Life. Anyone who knows Laree know she would want to have a celebration and it be all about her ❤️ so if you can donate anything, it is much appreciated. We will notify everyone once the Celebration of Life has been scheduled! Thank you for your support

Uodate: Her sisters will be having a family gathering at their home in New Port Richey Florida if anyone would like they are more then welcome to visit on Feb 22. I am still trying to decide how to best honor my mother, many ideas have crossed my mind but it’s so hard because she was such an amazing person with so many great friends but I will
keep everyone posted

Good morning,
I just wanted to give everyone an update on what we decided to do with the funds collected since it wasn’t all needed after her sisters volunteered to host a Celebration of Life. Initially we wanted to hold another Celebration of Life in Lockport but after a lot of conversations we (her kids) decided it’s just too hard and they didn’t want to have to go through that again. So a large portion of the funds collected will be used to reimburse Matt and Julie for the food that was bought for Celebration of Life hosted by her sisters. Secondly a portion of this money is going to the cost of the cremation for mom and lastly but not least the balance is going to be split amongst her beloved grandchildren as so many have suggested. I personally want to thank each and everyone of you for all your love, thoughts and support. Nothing will ever replace our mother but knowing she was so loved by so many does give us all some comfort. Thank you again.
