She married my dad Richard Esponnette in September of 1968. Laura worked for Napa Auto Parts in Westbrook for over 26 years until her retirement. She liked having her friends Ann and Ralph Trempe and Maryann Griffin every Saturday night for Pepsi drinking and senior gambling.
The funeral service will be held June 27, 2020 at 7:00 p.m. at the Conroy-Tully Walker South Portland Chapel, 1024 Broadway, South Portland. Conroy-Tully Walker will be officiating the ceremony. Moms ashes will go next to Dads at Brooklawn Memorial in Portland.
All are welcome to attend and celebrate Laura's life. Flowers and condolences may be sent to Pepsi-Cola because without Mom financing the company, surely they will file for bankruptcy.
Arrangements are under the direction of the Conroy-Tully Walker Funeral Home of South Portland.







We have a lot of good memories of great motorcycle riding trips when Laura and Rick were involved with the Seacoast Riders Motorcycle Club. We send along our deepest condolences to Tammy and the rest of the family. Our condolences also to friends Ralph and Anne Trempe on the loss of their best friend. – Denis & Debbie Litalien

Surely without Mimi around, the Pepsi and Marlborough companies will go bankrupt! They may need some condolences!
