Lara Lanasa

Lara Ann LaNasa died unexpectedly on April 22, 2020 in Aurora, Colorado, at the age of 53. Our time with Lara was too short and she will be missed by all who knew and loved her.

Lara is survived by her husband, Howard Richardson III. Lara never had any children of her own, but she is survived, and sorely missed, by her fury babies: Celo, Dolly, Leelo, Kelly and Gidget, and Gizmo. She was preceded in death by her parents William John and Doreen Violet Malone. Lara was an only child.

Lara was born in Germany, October, 14, 1966, but she grew up in the Longmont, Colorado area. In addition to her love of Persian cats, she was an accomplished equestrian on her beloved horse Beauty. Lara had worked several positions in the larger Denver area in real estate and legal offices.

No services are planned at this time, but a celebration of life will be held at a future date. Memorials in memory of Lara can be sent to the Dumb Friends League via their online Memorial link (https://www.ddfl.org/memorial-honor-giving/) or call them at (303) 751-5772.
