She is predeceased by her loving husband, Robert Nathan Landes, and survived by her three devoted children, Lucy Mayer Harrop, Kathy Mayer Braddock and Jeffrey Mark Landes, and her dedicated sons-in-law and daughter-inlaw Mark Delavan Harrop, Richard J. Zakin and Andrea C. Landes.

Laurie is survived by her parents Ronald and Donna Holbrook of Freeport, ME and her dedicated fiance Joe Diamante of New York City, her sister Kathleen, and her brothers Marty, Peter and John, and grandparents, nieces and nephews, and her cats Vivi and Madison.
In her childhood, she dedicated her time to her local Catholic church.

Mary is extremely proud of her children and dedicated her life to their activities.
