Laurette Lemrise Obituary

Laurette "Laurie" Susanne Lemrise, 68, of Worthington, Massachusetts, passed away unexpectedly, but peacefully, on March 31, 2025 at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston with her children and devoted husband of 47 years by her side.

Laurie was born in Hartford, Connecticut on February 12, 1957. She attended Windsor High School in Connecticut. She dedicated her life to her family and creating a beautiful home, which reflected her artistic talent and her natural gardening abilities. She miraculously survived a stage 4 cancer diagnosis in 2013 and believed God and the power of prayer was ultimately what healed her. She was an active member of the First Congregational Church in Worthington and devoted much of her time to helping and encouraging others to see the light and love in their own lives.

Laurie is survived by her husband Mark Lemrise, her daughter Heather Lemrise and her husband Christopher Harnett, her son Jason Lemrise and his wife Elly Pineda, her sister Jane Bramley, and a nephew Michael Bramley.

Donations in her memory should be made to First Congregational Church in Worthington. A service for family and friends will be held at a later date.

I worked with Laurie @ Worthington Health Center years ago. Her kindness was felt by all. We all were impressed by her artistic talent too, when she brightened the waiting room with her beautiful paintings. I was always happy to see her and only a month ago, we did at Liston“s. She was having lunch with a few friends and having a great time. My thoughts are with her family and friends at this time....Laurie was very special.

I met Laurie when I was a school van driver, in the early '90's; I was immediately drawn to her sweet, genuine nature. Her little son, Jason, and my little daughter, Sandy, became close pals. I moved out of Worthington in 1998, but would see her now and then, and we'd renew our valued connection as though no time had passed. She was a gem, and a delight to have known; I cannot imagine the loss her family surely feels; please accept my sincerest condolences.
