On September 24, the Coleman family experienced the unimaginable when Lauren Anne Porter Coleman passed away tragically and unexpectedly.

Lauren was a warm, kind, loving and devoted mother whose greatest joy was her family. Her 4-year-old daughter, Porter, was truly the light of her life. The love Lauren had for Porter was unmistakable, and the bond they shared was incredibly special.

Lauren leaves behind her husband John, her beloved daughter, Porter, Brady, and Taylor, as well as a family and community who loved her deeply. Nothing can fill the tremendous loss they are experiencing.

In lieu of flowers this fundraiser has been created to support Porter’s future education.

For those who knew and loved Lauren, this is an opportunity to honor her memory by helping care for what mattered most to her—her daughter.

Any contribution, no matter the amount, is deeply appreciated. If you are unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser with others is another meaningful way to show your support.

Thank you for keeping Porter, John, Brady, Taylor, and the entire family in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

Lauren’s love for Porter will always be a part of her, and we hope the support of family, friends, and community will remind Porter throughout her life just how many people are standing beside her.
