Obituary of Laura E. Ford

Laura Ford died December 9, 2021 at Lourdes Hospital of complications due to COVID-19, at the extraordinary age of 103. She was predeceased by her parents Burr and Marion Scoville, her husband William Ford, brothers Harry, Leland and Lloyd Scoville and sister in law Marie Scoville. She is survived by her extended family of numerous nieces and nephews. Laura had a disarming, joyous laugh. Those who knew her would say that she left a lasting imprint on their lives. She was a fierce advocate and supporter for animals and wildlife. Laura enjoyed golf and bowling well into her senior years. She worked at IBM and retired from the NYS Department of Labor. She loved to reminisce and tell stories of her life and of her forever love, Billy, with whom she has been reunited. Her family would like to thank her wonderful caretakers Nancy, Michelle, Peggy, Sue, Barb, Lois and Mary for helping Laura remain in her home. A family Graveside Service was held on December 16, 2021 in St. Augustine's Cemetery, Silver Lake, PA. Rev. David C. Seaver officiated.
