Also surviving are his sister, Helen Stayer and husband Joe of Olean, New York, and several nieces and nephews.

Aunt Ginny, So sorry that we were not able to be with you. Will miss Uncle Laurence. He was an awesome uncle! Spent many summer vacations with him and enjoyed stopping at your house on our way to Aunt Helen's house in the Fall. God be with you in this sorrowful time! Hope to see you soon! Love and prayers!
