In loving memory

Laura Jean Patricia Allen – Bonacci

December 25th, 1960 – May 29th, 2024

We ask now that you take time to remember your relationship with Laura Jean Patricia Allen – Bonacci as she has laid down for her final rest. Born in New York City on Christmas day in 1960 and raised in Paramus, New Jersey by her loving parents, Robert and Joan Allen. Laura resided in Port St. Lucie, Florida for the past eight years.

She is survived by her brothers Robert Allen, Jr and James Michael Allen and will live for eternity with her two adopted children, T.J, and Michelle. Additionally, she is survived by the father of her children, many cousins, and her loving Aunt Helen Brennan.

She attended Our Lady of Visitation and graduated from Paramus High School, Class of 1978.

Laura worked with special needs children and had an incredible love of animals. Growing up there was hardly a week that passed when we didn’t have a new cat or dog that needed to be adopted or cared for. She treated her children with an incredible and unconditional love.

Her lifelong friendship with Laura Jean Patricia Jeffas is the foundation of which all friendships should be held… love, laughter, forgiveness, great stories, and support.

If you knew Laura, each conversation held a strain of New Jersey grit, and more importantly, an incredible sense of humor especially in the most trying times. Throughout her life, from childhood through adulthood, she battled cancer multiple times. To say she was strong, or a survivor would be an understatement.

May God bless you and keep you in the hollow of his hand.

Donations in her name can be made to the Tunnels to Towers Foundation. www.t2t.org

A day to celebrate her life will be announced at a later time.
