Laura Lee Dailey

Laura Lee Dailey, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away on Thursday, April 18, 2024, at the age of 69.

Born on July 11, 1954, to Charles and Margaret (Burns) Hamilton, Laura was the 15th of 17 children. She is survived by her dear siblings Chuck (Joanne), Barbara, Richard, Myra (Wayne), Linda, Marquerite (Dale), Cindy (Bob), Terry (Marilyn), Jim (Susie), Mike (Lynn), Mary Anne and preceded death by Donald, Janet, Ralph, Elizabeth, and Mary Lou.

Laura is survived by her loving husband Dave Dailey, with whom she shared many treasured years. Laura's love for her children and grandchildren was immeasurable and unwavering. She dedicated herself to nurturing and supporting them, always ensuring they felt cherished and valued. Her children, Malena (Dave) Ribikowski, Robert (Angela) Beaver, Nick Dailey, and Chris Dailey, as well as her grandchildren Dominic Beaver, Natalie Ribikowski, Ryliee Beaver, Michael Ribikowski, Lincoln Ballestero, and Cameron Dailey, were the center of her world. Laura's legacy of love will continue to shine brightly through the lives of her beloved family members.

Laura was a dedicated individual who worked tirelessly to support her family. She spent many years in the retail industry, working for Sealy Mattress, where she met her husband Dave, and later K-Mart. After retiring from retail, Laura transitioned to a caregiver role, providing support and compassion to those battling dementia.

A creative spirit, Laura found joy in various crafts, sewing, and crochet. Her witty, kind, easy-going personality endeared her to all who knew her, and she cherished spending time with her large family, especially her siblings, with whom she loved to share the latest gossip. In true Hamilton fashion, Laura could never keep a secret, but her gift of gab was one of her most endearing qualities. Laura was everyone's friend and loved her family deeply.

Faith played a central role in Laura's life, and she was a devoted member of Christ the King Lutheran Church. In Laura's desire to help people, she delighted in serving with fellow church members in the homeless ministry.

Laura's legacy of kindness, generosity, and love will live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her.

Visitation will be on Saturday, April 20, 2024  1:00 p.m. until time of service at Solosy Funeral Home.
