She always looked for others and helped her family and friends whenever possible.

LaVaun enjoyed socializing with her many friends at Heather Gardens and beyond, while playing cards and enjoying a glass of wine. She was an avid sports fan who loved the Broncos, Avalanche and Nuggets and played basketball and baseball in her youth. She was a kind woman who relished in her family, enjoyed just talking to people, and was simply a joy to be around. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
