Laurel Jane Warner, born on August 5, 1985, in Syracuse, NY, passed away peacefully on July 29, 2025, after facing ongoing health challenges with strength and grace. She was 39 years old. Laurel was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Martin Warner and Mary Susan Whitfield. She is survived by her devoted sisters, Desiree Rownd and Kimberly Warner; her cherished grandmother, Dolores Warner; and her loving uncle, Gary Gloska. She also leaves behind six adoring nieces, five nephews, and many others whose lives were deeply touched by her warmth and generosity. Laurel had a deep love for all living beings — people and animals alike. Her pets, Jilly Bean, Lola, and Martha, were more than companions; they were family, and she cared for them with endless affection. Creative and free-spirited, Laurel found joy in painting, crafting, and music. The outdoors was her sanctuary, and she spent as much time as she could surrounded by nature. She lived with an open heart and an unwavering desire to make the world a better place. Whether through her kindness, her art, or her everyday actions, Laurel gave generously of herself and inspired others to do the same.Her presence, compassion, and love will be dearly missed by all who knew her.
