TOTH

Struggling with heart and lung issues related to childhood cancer, LAUREN TOTH passed away on Friday, November 5, 2021.

Lauren and identical twin sister Jennifer were born in Lethbridge on Sunday, August 20, 1989. Wanting to be among her family, friends, her cat Oliver, and her dog Bolt, she chose to move from the hospital to the comfort of her home for her final days.

Lauren packed an incredible life into her thirty-two years. She loved family and friend gatherings, music, camping with her dad, soccer, badminton, tennis and cooking creative and unique meals for sharing. Lauren’s passion for animals was a constant driving force in her life. She volunteered at the Lethbridge and District Humane Society and after attending Olds College, was employed as a veterinary assistant at CARE Centre in Calgary. Wanting to further her education, she attended Fairview College and earned the designation as a Veterinary Technician. Upon return to Lethbridge, she gained employment at the Northside Veterinary Clinic. Lauren loved to travel and was fortunate to have lived in and visited many parts of the world, including Europe, Japan and Costa Rica.

There are people that bring light into the world and even though they’re gone, the light remains. Lauren will ever be remembered as a strong and compassionate woman by her parents, Darren and Elaine, brother Branden (Vera), sister Jen (Jason), auntie Jenny (Steve), uncle Randy (Camille), boyfriend Stephen, grandma Irene, lifelong best friend Megan, and numerous friends, cousins, aunts, and uncles.
