Sorry
Dear Family: Sending our sympathy and praying for your comfort. Lawrence will be remembered as one of our "back in the day buddies". He and his late brother Eddie, were a team who we had lots of fun with. After Lawrence came out of the service we would all get together and pick up where we left off. Of course we were all a bit older but the friendship continued. During his visit to the rehab. facility, I woud visit and sometimes take him popcorn, which he liked. We would talk about old times and laugh--especially about the block dances my Mom would have for the young people. He was a lot of fun, but could be very serious in his beliefs. We are sure family, that you have many good memories and we pray for your comfort and that all of you will be encouraged. Rest in peace, "Meaty". Love: Jimmy & Bonnie
