Laurnel Marie Henry Sauter was born on August 23, 1949 at the old Sandwich hospital on Main Street, to Agnes and Oliver “Curly” Henry. Spending her childhood in Sandwich, she attended St. Mary's Catholic grade school in Plano, Illinois. She graduated from Sandwich High School in 1967. She then graduated from St. Francis Hospital school of radiology in 1969. She was an excellent radiology technician and loved her work. She married Dr. Michael Sauter and together they had 3 beautiful children, Matthew, Michelle, and Megan.
Laurnel (or Laurie to many) was known for her warm smile and welcoming heart. From teaching CCD classes at the kitchen table to keeping the freezer stocked with food, she was known as a “cool mom” that made her home a place to gather.
Always adored by her professional peers for her hard work and good attitude. Laurnel gave generously throughout her life all for the betterment of others with her time, money and feedback via her infamous “Laurie Letters”. Her kind heart and unapologetic love for Barry Manilow lives on in the hearts of those that have had the privilege of knowing her.
She leaves to mourn her, her son Matthew (Edye) Sauter, daughter Michelle Sauter (Lee) Money, and daughter Megan Sauter (David) Bolinder. Grandchildren Ryland, Harrison, Lexi, Tre, Chase, Marilyn and Jack. Sister Roxanne Henry Schramer, nephew John Schramer and niece Dawn Schramer.
