Laura Bartlett Majed

Laura Bartlett Majed passed away at home in Attleboro, Massachusetts, on September 24 at age 70. Born in Overton, Texas, she grew up in Buffalo, New York. She later lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Providence, Rhode Island before moving to Attleboro 22 years ago. She was the daughter of the late Jesse R. Bartlett of Texas and the late Shirley H. Bartlett of Buffalo, New York. She was predeceased by her brothers John F. Bartlett and Glen R. Bartlett. She leaves a brother, Jeffrey C. Bartlett, and his wife Sheila, of Endicott, New York.

Laura graduated from the State University of New York at Buffalo with a degree in English and earned a paralegal certificate from Boston University. She worked in publishing for 20 years prior to her retirement in 2018. Prior to this, she was employed at Fleet National Bank and Citizens Bank.

Throughout her life, Laura’s primary passion was in improving the lives of lost and abandoned animals. She was the proud caregiver of many cats, including some that were unadoptable and needed special care. She also devoted many hours to volunteering at Winslow Farm Animal Sanctuary in Norton, Massachusetts, as well as for the Friends of Attleboro Animal Shelter.

Laura was a loving and faithful sister and daughter, and a valuable friend to all who knew her.

A memorial service will be held at a later date to be announced. In lieu of flowers, friends are encouraged to donate in Laura’s memory to Winslow Farm Animal Sanctuary, 37 Eddy Street, Norton, Massachusetts, 02766.
