Laura Braswell's Obituary
Laura Ann Braswell was born on 6 February 1945 in Rutigliano, Italy. She was the only
daughter of Flora and Frank Colamussi. Laura passed on Monday 15 April 2024. Laura was
married to Richard Leonard Braswell for 42 years, and is survived by two daughters Florence
Bayot and Patricia Braswell; who were the focus of her life; and her son-in-law Stanley Bayot.
Laura was a devoted wife, a loving mother, and an excellent cook. She was passionate about
reading, traveling, learning about the world, and enjoyed spending time with family and
friends. Laura was a devout Catholic, attending mass on a regular basis and praying the
rosary daily. As her health and mobility declined, she continued practicing her Catholic faith
by watching mass service on EWTN daily at 7 PM and Midnight.
She will be deeply missed by her beloved family and friends that she touched. A funeral
service is scheduled on Friday 26 April 2024 at Our Lady Of The Rosary Catholic Church. Fr.
Raju Chebattina will officiate.
