In Loving Memory of Jennifer Lee Laino
April 7, 1984 – July 15, 2026
With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Jennifer Lee Laino on July 15, 2026, at the age of 42.
Jennifer was a woman whose heart knew no limits when it came to loving her family. Her kindness, compassion, and unwavering devotion to those she loved defined who she was. She found joy in spending time with family, creating lasting memories, and offering unconditional love and support to everyone fortunate enough to know her.
Jennifer dedicated much of her professional life to working in animal hospitals, where her deep love for animals and caring nature touched countless lives. Her compassion extended beyond her work, reflecting the gentle and selfless person she was every day.
Jennifer is survived by her devoted mother, Marie Laino and her fiance Stan Dembowski, and her loving fiancé, Les Koc, who remained faithfully by her side. She was preceded in death by her beloved father, Rocco Laino.
She also leaves behind her cherished aunts and uncles, Fran Hurley, Claudette Cusimano, and Ronald Hurley, along with her beloved cousins Michele, Joseph, Tracie, Amanda, Angela, Christopher, Gianna, Jackson, Justin and Theodore, as well as many extended family members and dear friends who will forever treasure her memory.
Jennifer’s warmth, beautiful spirit, and unconditional love will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her. Though our hearts are broken, we find comfort in knowing that she is now at peace, free from pain, and forever watching over those she loved so dearly.
A memorial service will be offered at a later date.
Arrangements are under the direction of the Timothy E. Ryan Home for Funerals, 145 St. Catherine Blvd., Toms River.
