It is with unspeakable sadness, we must share that on Sunday February 18, 2024, our amazing mom, Lauren Christine Cresto, age 42 of Newark Delaware, entered an eternal rest.
Our mom was born April 20, 1981, to our grandparents, Victor D. and Jeanne (Heath) Cresto, who preceded her in death. Mommy received her education in the Christina School District of New Castle Delaware and at Star Technical Institute in which she became a certified medical assistant. Our mom used those skills to help others in the weight loss field. Caring and devoting herself to the 4 of us was her passion. All 4 of us shared a special place in her heart. She was our cheer leader and will forever be our best friend. She was beautiful. Her heart was so warm, and her smile was even warmer. Our mom shared her beautiful smile while working in various customer service positions, including Shop Rite of Newark, Delaware and most recently Food Lion of Newark, Delaware where her big heart embraced Doreen Powell. Our mom loved scary movies and taking us on long walks. She loved everybody and she made room in her heart for all of our friends. Everyone loved our mom.
Our mom leaves all 4 of us, Ervin S. Phillips 3rd, Alex (Alexis) Christine Adams, Aryanna Grace Adams and Avalin Marie Adams to cherish her memory. We were the sunshine of her Life and will forever hear her voice singing close in our ears. She leaves her older brother, John Tate to treasure every sibling memory they shared. Mommy also leaves her companion and love, Chris Adams, to keep her memory alive. She will be immensely missed by her unwavering best friend, E.S. (Ervin Phillips) along with our 2 devoted cousins Chrissy and Tuesday Cresto and devoted Aunt Ruth Ann Thomas and Aunt Terry Cresto. Mom leaves a host of loving family members and friends to share her stories, remembering her forever.
