My sincere condolence’s to Mary, Michelle, Amanda and Ian.

Uncle Lawrence was a special guy who enjoyed making you smile. 😊

He had such a variety in interests and I believe he really could do anything he set his mind to. Even putting cedar shakes on the roof of his house.

He was a high school science teacher, and I would have loved to have had him for my teacher! I’m sure his student enjoyed his classes.

Years ago, I remember He and Mary operated an ice cream stand in the summers to keep busy.

For a moment in time he was a pig farmer with his wife Mary and my parents.

He had a love for making things out of leather and for setting up model trains. He even set up a garden train track outside of his house.

I have so many good memories. He will be missed.
Rest in peace.❤️
