Laura Mikula Lyons, of Covington, passed away Tuesday, December 17, 2019, at 60 years of age. A longtime resident of Newton County, Laura was deeply rooted in her Christian beliefs and loved to share with others her love for God. She was a generous, kind-hearted, and selfless person whose presence and light impacted everyone she met along life's path. Oftentimes, she was a source of encouragement for others, and was always a supporter for those not strong enough to advocate for themselves. Laura's capacity to care and nurture extended to not only friends and family, but she had a fondness for animals that was undeniable. Her other passions in life were the Georgia Bulldogs, running, writing, immersing herself in a crime novel; and in keeping with her quick wit, delivering a humorous pun. Laura was preceded in death by her parents, Jerry Wendel, Anne Wendel Sampson; first husband, Daniel Mikula; and second husband, Mark Lyons.
I Peter 4:8 - Above all, love each other deeply because love covers a multitude of sins.
Left to honor her memory with love and respect is her fiancé, Terry Hall; daughters and sons-in-law, Danielle and Michael Anderson, Lydia and Franklin Clackum; son and daughter-in-law, Josh and Ashley Lyons; grandchildren, Joshua Mark Lyons, Daniel Mark Clackum; sisters, Maureen, Phyllis, Eileen, Celeste; numerous nieces and nephews; as well as her fur babies, Abby (Schaub) and Kit Kat.
