LAURA PACHOLL Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 9, 2012.
Pacholl, Laura Jo Ann, 71, (July 25, 1941 - November 5, 2012) of Aliso Viejo. Laura demonstrated tremendous courage and strength in her six-year battle with cancer. She passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her loving family and is now with her predeceased baby daughter. She is survived by her husband, Glen; children, Wendy (Will), Wayne (Nicole), Keith (Kris); five grandsons, Connor, Jason, Matthew, Garrett, Ethan; and siblings, Patti (Wayne) and Robert. She devoted her life to her family and cherished her time with her grandsons. She was a source of inspiration to all who met her. Laura's genuine concern and compassion for others knew no bounds, whether it was directed to family, friends, fellow cancer patients, or even strangers. She was known for her creativity and artistic expression, from her holiday decorations and homemade crafts to her Bohemian style of clothing. She will be deeply missed by her husband, children, grandchildren, extended family, and all those whose lives she has touched. We will celebrate her life at a Vigil/Rosary to be held on Monday, November 12, 7:00pm at Brown Colonial Mortuary in Santa Ana. Her funeral mass will take place on Tuesday, November 13, 10:30am at Holy Family Cathedral in Orange. Brown Colonial Mortuary

Glen and family. We are so sorry for the loss of Laura. Although we didn't see her much, I will always remember the twinkle in her eye when we did get together. She will be missed.

Laura has changed her address but her humor, love for family and friends remain with us. She has been an inspiration to so many. She fought the good fight and now rests with God. Peace to Glen and all her family.
