Laurie Ellen McEvoy, 40 of Watertown, died unexpectedly on Sunday, June 5, 2016.
Laurie was born in Watertown on October 10, 1975, the daughter of Barbara (Michael) Fenz and Don (Karen) McEvoy. She is a 1994 graduate of Watertown High School and earned her Bachelor's Degree in Nursing from UW-Eau Claire in 1999. She worked for a number of years at UW-Hospitals and the VA Hospital, both of Madison, as an ER Nurse. She had a gorgeous smile and an infectious, witty personality. She was a dedicated caregiver and cherished ALL forms of life. Laurie adored her dog, Jada and treated her more like a daughter than a pet.
