Lauren Sue Feder Haarpaintner, 55, born in Durham, North Carolina, passed away November 28 after a humbling experience with cancer. She was born on February 24, 1959 to Robert and Ellie Feder Davis . Lauren graduated from Beverly Hills High School and went on to receive a Bachelor degree from the University of California Santa Barbara and her Medical degree for the University of Guadalajara. She married Rene Haarpaintner on March 21, 1991.
Lauren’s kindness, clarity, strength and conviction affected and helped all she touched. She took great pride in creating The Center for Natural Family Medicine where patients could come and receive sound counsel on medical issues and receive the most nurturing medical care. In her spare time she loved to go to church, take walks and most of all spend time with her family and friends. Lauren wrote hundreds of articles, did many interviews and published three books.
Lauren is survived by her two sons Etienne and Quentin, her loving husband Rene, her brother Todd, her sister Sherry. Her wonderful spirit, joy, and talents will be celebrated at a 10 am Mass service Saturday December 6th, 2014 at St. Brendan’s Catholic Church, 310 S. Van Ness Ave, Los Angeles with a reception following. The burial will be a private inturnment.
The family has asked that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to one of Lauren’s favorite charities, The Society of Saint Vincent DePaul in order to send less privileged children to summer camp. You can contact Lori Christian at 323-276-6084. Saint Vincent DePaul 210 North Avenue 21, LA, CA 90031
