Laura Ann Luse

Dateline: Ballston Spa, NY
Laura Ann Luse, age 67, died peacefully on July 10, 2025, at Saratoga Hospital. Laura was born on February 22, 1958, in Glens Falls, NY, to the late George and Edna (Deo) Luse.
Laura enjoyed her career as a line cook at McDonalds in Ballston Spa. Laura had a vibrant personality and loved spending her free time doing a variety of activities. She was an avid player of slot mania and enjoyed going to bingo. Laura also loved trying out different restaurants with her son, Shane, in search of the ultimate burger. Although she tried many, her favorite burger remained the one she had in the parking lot at SPAC during a concert. Music was another passion of Laura's, and she enjoyed attending concerts with Shane and letting off balloons into the crowd to see how far they would go. She also loved feeding the adorable squirrels outside of her home.
Laura is survived by her son Shane (Alisa) DeVoe and her partner, Daniel Roberts. She is also survived by her sister, Helen (Bruce) Luse Bostain and her children, Chad, Karen, and Rhiannon Mercier; her nephew Earl Ranson and his sons, Eral and Ryan as well as several other nieces and nephews and her dear friends, Georgia Demarch and Donald Hoffman.
In addition to her parents, Laura is preceded in death by her sister Karen and her brother Earl.
