Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Madelyn “Lyn” Laboriel.
Lyn Laboriel nee McCauley was born in Everett MA on December 21st, 1948 to Patrick & Madeline McCauley.
She was soon joined by her two younger brothers Robert & Patrick.
She graduated from Lexington High School then proceeded to Boston University School of Medicine to obtain her Doctorate Degree in Pediatrics.
Lyn was a proud Bostonian through and through.
It was there she met the love of her life; her best friend and life partner Abraham Laboriel.
They married in the fall of 1970 & have been inseparable for 56 years.
Lyn and Abraham Sr.’s life as physician & musician blended perfectly.
They supported & complimented each other beautifully while raising two boys Abraham, Jr. & Mateo.
They carefully curated a home filled with love, music & laughter.
She taught her boys not only how to cook but how to throw a ball; a real renaissance woman.
Lyn was a true champion of children.
She held a private practice in pediatrics for several years before shifting focus to fight injustices for those less fortunate.
It is through her work at L.A. County and USC Medical Center General Hospital that she specifically focussed on diagnosing, treating & educating families of children born with FAS (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome).
Lyn’s faith in God and her loving family were her cornerstones.
She was a generous spirit who always had time to share wisdom & advice with family & friends.
She forever made room for guests at her exuberant holiday tables which were overflowing with the above mentioned love, laughter and delicious food.
Lyn was called home by her Lord to join the heavenly choir April 3rd, 2026 on Good Friday.
She was surrounded by love; holding hands with her beloved husband & their two sons.
