Laurie Ach Obituary

It is with great sorrow that the family of Laurie Ach (nee Russell), a wife, mother, sister, daughter and friend, announces her passing.

The loves of her life were her husband, Richard, and children, Gabriella and Tristan. She was the loving sister of Judy (Michael) Shields and dear daughter of the late Sheila Russell. She will be forever missed by countless cousins, sisters and brothers in-law, nieces and nephews, friends and neighbors. She poured her heart into taking care of others, especially her husband, children, sister and friends, and did it without question. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you donate to the International Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia Foundation (IWMF.com) in her honor. Visitation will be Sunday, October 8th from 2:00 PM until 7:00 PM at the KERRY FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION CARE CENTER, 7020 W. 127th Street, Palos Heights. Family and friends will gather Monday, October 9th, at 11:00 AM, for a funeral service at the funeral home. Interment will be private. www.kerryfh.com ~ 708.361.4235 ~ www.facebook.com/kerryfuneral
