Lauri S. Davis-DiPaola

July 29, 1961 – October 28, 2026

Lauri S. Davis-DiPaola, 65, of Springboro, Pennsylvania, passed away on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, at 5:41 p.m. at UPMC Shadyside Hospital in Pittsburgh, PA, with her loving daughters, Britni and Sarina, and her sister, Kathi, by her side as she took her final breath.

She was born on July 29, 1961, in Rochester, NY. Lauri was one of 11 children, growing up in a large family. She later moved to Raleigh, NC where she lived for many years before eventually settling in Springboro, PA.

She enjoyed working as a Store Manager at Hallmark many years ago, a job and a time in her life she truly cherished. She often spoke fondly of her days there, the memories she made, and the people she met.

Lauri was a woman of strong faith and incredible strength. Having survived cancer once before, she faced another battle with lung cancer over the last two years. Throughout her journey, she showed tremendous courage and determination. Her strength and fighting spirit will never be forgotten.

She enjoyed talking with her neighbors, sitting outside and enjoying the fresh air, shopping, watching her favorite reality television shows, and spending time with the people she loved. Her beloved dogs, Bam Bam and Lucy Lou, were also a very special part of her life and gave her motivation and a reason to get up each day.

Above all, Lauri treasured her family and friends, especially her grandchildren, who brought her so much love, happiness, and joy. They held an incredibly special place in her heart and were among her greatest blessings.

Lauri was preceded in death by her parents, Raymond E. Davis and Elizabeth A. Stephens-Davis; her significant other, Gene Beasley; her two brothers, Stephen and Charles Davis; and her niece, Jessica Hilton.

She is survived by James DiPaola (Brian Weaver); her children, Eric DiPaola of Holley, NY, Britni Stewart (Dustin) of Elyria, OH, and Sarina DiPaola (fiancé Lawrence Pearson) of Spencerport, NY; her beloved grandchildren, Landen Stewart, Averry DiPaola, Raegan Stewart, and Gianna Stewart; and numerous brothers, sisters, nieces, and nephews.

Lauri will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Though her time here has come to an end, the love she gave, the memories she created, and the lives she touched will remain in our hearts forever.

In keeping with Lauri's wishes, cremation will take place, and services will be private and at the convenience of the family.

Memorial contributions may be made to the Meadville Medical Center Foundation at 736 Liberty St., Meadville, Pa 16335 specifically the Oncology Benevolent Fund, in Lauri's memory.

"He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain."
