Laura Ann (Dudie) Guinn<\/p>\n
Laura was nicknamed Dudie by her father when she was a small child and her family continued to call her that all of her life.<\/p>\n
Laura never met a stranger. She loved people and they were drawn to her. She lived life joyously and had traveled fearlessly. Her sense of humor and positive attitude made her beloved by all. Friends that she made remained friends for life. She was an active volunteer in the Kent community.<\/p>\n
She was preceded in death by her son Chris in 1969, son Gordon in 2008 and sister D. Margaret LaBolle in 2006. She is survived by her sister Mary Kryger of Pomona, CA and several nieces and nephews who considered her their mother when they lost theirs and their favorite aunt.<\/p>\n
Born in Sioux City, Iowa, April 26, 1927, the family settled in Kent later that year. She attended Kent schools, graduating in 1945. She married David Guinn and was a homemaker until 1982 when she began working at the Seattle Auto Auction. She retired in 1997.<\/p>\n
She passed away peacefully April 18, 2015 from natural causes.<\/p>\n
A celebration of her life will be held from 2-5 pm on May 7, 2015 at Golden Steer Steak \u2018n Rib House, 23826 104th Ave. S.E., Kent, WA. Remembrances may be made to Fred Hutchinson Cancer research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
