Lauri A. DeMartino-Janese, 48, formally of Niagara Falls, NY, passed away Friday November 8th, 2013 in Las Vegas, NV. She was the daughter of Michael R. Janese, Sr. of Lockport, NY and the late Patricia A. (Rawleigh) Janese.

Lauri was born in Niagara Falls, NY and attended local schools where she graduated from LaSalle Senior High School in 1984. She relocated to Las Vegas, NV in 2004. Lauri loved spending time in Florida with her sister, brother-in-law and boyfriend Joe Jr. Her plans were to move to Florida which was the place that she loved to be. She enjoyed spending time at the beach, walking in the sand, sitting in the warm sun and dressing in odd colors. Lauri was always known to be the life of the party and would give you the shirt off of her back not asking for anything in return.

In addition to her father, Lauri is survived by her brother, Michael R. (Judith) Janese Jr. of Lewiston, NY; a sister, Sherri S. (Joseph) Milone of Jacksonville, FL; her nieces and nephews, Laura E. (Joseph) Scarfone, Michael A. Janese, Christopher M. Smeal, Justin R. Dietz, Rachel A. Dietz; four great-nieces, three great-nephews. Lauri is also survived by aunts, uncles and cousins.
