Ann L. Devonald

Ann L. (Lasecki) Devonald, 69, passed away peacefully on the morning of November 8, 2026, at her home with her husband by side.

Ann is survived by her loving husband, Jim; her children, Alex (Becky Bancroft), Tyler (Liz Groshens), and Nick (Ana); her siblings, Steve Lasecki (Joan Puopolo) and Katie Casey (Sam Manavis); and numerous nieces and nephews.

Those fortunate enough to have Ann in their lives understood what a gift it was to call her a friend. A natural caregiver, Ann had an extraordinary ability to bring positivity, warmth, and love to everyone around her. Both professionally and in her personal life, she was a constant source of compassion and nurturing energy. Her generosity of spirit touched countless lives, brightening the world around her and helping everyone and everything she touched flourish.

Ann found joy in tending to her garden, traveling, and, above all, spending time with the family she loved so deeply and supported so wholeheartedly. Her life was a reflection of the love she so freely gave, and those who knew her will forever cherish the happiness, kindness, and beautiful memories she leaves behind.

As Oscar Wilde once wrote, "Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden." Ann lived with that love in her heart every day, and her legacy will continue to bloom in the lives of those she touched.

The family extends its heartfelt gratitude to all who knew and loved Ann and who have offered their support during this difficult time.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in Ann's name may be made to the Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance at ocrahope.org/get-involved/ways-to-give/make-a-donation/.
