JANUARY 4, 1936 – AUGUST 30, 2022

DeWayne Lauridsen, rode away from his Earthly body on 8/30/2022. DeWayne was born in Greeley, Colorado to Vernon and Vivian Lauridsen. A lifelong cowboy, DeWayne worked on numerous ranches/feedlots in Colorado and Wyoming. As an avid team roper, he spent his free time roping alongside his children and grandchildren.

DeWayne is survived by his children Rick (Tammi) Lauridsen, Terrie (Dennis) Guenther, Steve (Polly) Lauridsen, and Jody (Virgil) Wooldridge and one sister Shirley Tusberg. Grandchildren include Dustin, Korie, Tyler, Ashlee, Jessica, Danielle and Dakota along with 12 great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his wife Geraldine (Gerry), his son Gary, his parents and his sister Marilyn. No services are planned.

The only favor I would ask before I'm called away is let me be a Cowboy again for one more day.
