It is with profound sadness and heartfelt sorrow that we share the news of the sudden and unexpected passing of Tom and Julie Lauck on November 1, 2025, following a tragic crash.
Their loss has shaken the hearts of all who knew them, leaving behind a tremendous void in the lives of family members, friends, neighbors, and all those who were touched by their warmth, generosity, and unwavering love for one another.
Tom and Julie, devoted partners in life for many decades, had been embracing the joy of their retirement years in Ormond Beach, Florida, a place where they found deep peace and happiness.
Their days were often filled with simple, meaningful pleasures morning walks, shared meals, and long conversations and most memorably, the breathtaking Florida sunsets they admired together from the shoreline.
These afternoons spent watching the sky shift into brilliant shades of orange and gold became symbolic of their life together: radiant, tranquil, and filled with gratitude.
As individuals, Tom and Julie were extraordinary; together, they were unforgettable. Their bond was evident to everyone who crossed their path whether through the way they laughed together, supported one another, or welcomed others with open hearts.
They carried with them a spirit of kindness and openness that made people feel instantly at ease. Family gatherings, holidays, and everyday visits were infused with their sense of humor, their stories, and the unmistakable warmth they brought into every room.
Tom was known for his steady presence and quiet strength. A devoted husband, father, and grandfather, he offered guidance, love, and reassurance in every chapter of life. His thoughtful nature made him someone others naturally sought out in times of need.
Julie, equally beloved, was the heart of the family gentle, nurturing, and endlessly generous with her time and affection. Her laughter could lift even the heaviest of hearts, and her kindness left an imprint on everyone fortunate enough to know her.
Together they created a home and a life rooted in love, devotion, and deep family connection.
Their sudden passing has been devastating for their loved ones, who now face not only overwhelming grief but the unexpected financial burdens that arise in the wake of tragedy.
In response, the Lauck family has organized a fundraiser to help cover medical expenses and funeral costs. This support is essential in allowing the family to honor Tom and Julie with the dignity, respect, and remembrance they so profoundly deserve.
In keeping with their lifelong devotion to their family especially their grandchildren any funds raised beyond immediate expenses will be dedicated to supporting their grandchildren’s future education.
