Obituary: Laya Frances Murphy, our mother, grandmother, mother-in-law, cousin and great grandmother, went to heaven to be with our Lord on 27, 2014, from complications due to chronic illness. She will never be forgotten! Her love, strength and beauty will always be remembered by all who knew her. God Bless You Mom, Gram, Laya, friend, we love you.

Laya was born on 10, 1942; however she spent most of her life celebrating her birthday on 9, 1942, which always made her laugh. She was born right at midnight and her parents thought it was the 9th but the hospital recorded it as the 10th. Laya was born to Josephine Elizabeth Bakunas and Francis William Bakunas in Torrington, CT. She was an only child, third generation American. Following Layas graduation from Torrington High School in 1960, her parents told her she had two choices: theyd pay for her to become a teacher or a nurse. Laya decided to become a nurse; remember this is 1960, so off to nursing school she went. The nursing school she attended was run by the Catholic Archdioceses, and all her instructors were Nuns. During this time in history only women were nurses thus this was an all-girls school. One of her favorite stories is: she remembered doing bed checks of patients in the old buildings with a candle since there were no lights! graduation Laya practiced nursing in Connecticut, and also much later in California.

In 1963, she met and married, Daniel J. OConnell. had two beautiful children; Daniel F. OConnell born in 1964, and Kara E. (OConnell) Stott born in 1967. Laya and Daniel were divorced in 1974.

Feeling the need to have a fresh start Laya, her children and her parents moved to California in 1974. She settled in Long Beach, working as a Trauma Emergency Nurse at Saint Francis Hospital in Lynwood. Laya remarried in 1978 to Stephen Murphy, who soon accepted a job in Ventura, CA. Laya then spent the rest of her life in Ventura.

Laya spent her career working as a nurse in Ventura. To this day, when she would see professional colleagues from that time, together they would reminisce of the happy times they had working together. She was exceptionally good at remembering people.

While working full time and having two children in high school, Laya pursued a Bachelors Degree at Chapman University, and then a Masters Degree in Psychology. She graduated with a Masters from California Lutheran University in 1989, and after passing the licensing exam, became a Marriage and Family Therapist. Laya opened her own Marriage and Family therapy practice, and later went to work for the State of California Department of Services, inspecting skilled nursing facilities. Respect given and respect earned: later in life when she was in need of such a facility as a patient, staff would say I remember you, she would smile.

Laya would always say she enjoyed her life. She lived boldly. Laya was adventurous and pursued hobbies such as sailboat racing, snorkeling, and scuba diving. She loved the ocean and traveled many times to experience warmer waters in Greece, the Tahitian Islands, Hawaii, and Mexico. Unfortunately a chronic illness she acquired while in her late forties steadily debilitated her through the rest of her life, and ultimately contributed to her death. Laya always cherished her friends, and her family meant the world to her. Laya was able to witness both of her children marry, she fell in love with her grandchildren, and she was even able to meet one of her great grandsons. Although her passing has saddened those of us who knew her, she believed in God. We will take comfort in knowing she is with Him in peace. She would say, I did it my way and she did right up to the time of her death. God Bless you Laya, you will be greatly missed.

The family would like to send a special thank you to Dr. Robert Warwar and Dr. Stephen Covington, their nurses and staff. All of you treated her like she was your immediate family and she loved you for it. Our mom spent a lot of time at Victoria in Ventura. Thank you to all of you who made her feel special. It amazed us how she knew each and every one of your names: that is the testament to the loving and gentle care you gave her each and every time she was a client. Thank you to the Community Memorial Hospital staff, as she spent many a day in the emergency room, having tests taken, and on the floors as an in-patient. Finally we want to thank all the Cypress Place staff from the Independent Living facility. Laya spent almost four years living with you, you were always gracious and caring, she was so thankful for your love.

A Rosary dedicated to Laya will be held at Ted Mayr , 3150 Loma Vista Road, Ventura, at 7:00 pm, on , 4, 2014.

A Mass of Christian Burial will take place at Our Lady of Assumption Church, 3175 Telegraph Road, Ventura, at 1:00 pm on , 5, 2014. Burial will immediately follow at Conejo Mountain Memorial Park, 2052 Howard Road, Camarillo, CA. 91302.
