To Gwen and Wendy and family - my deepest condolences. I have such wonderful memories of Laurie during our time together in Rome. His delightful sense of the ridiculous and original humour. He was an exceptional man and Tristano and I were privileged to be able to share his friendship.

My condolences to Laurie's loved ones. My Rome memories are of a terrific admin officer but also and especially of his wicked sense of humour (anonymous pet nicknames for staff, e.g. RCMP Liaison Officer was "Smokey the Bear" and others quite apt and dry. And of little Harry, the hairy Dachshund badly in need of hair conditioner to tame his genetically unruly coat and of little Harry encountering the doctor's Dalmatian in the elevator -- a dramatic meeting. Laurie stands out as a humane and effective officer in the more enjoyable pre "politically-correct" days.

Our sincere and deepest sympathy to Gwen and family. Laurie and I were colleagues in Moscow in the early 70's and our families shared much of the stress and hardship of serving in this city during the height of the cold war. He was a fine man, an exemplary admin officer and we became fast friends. He was someone with whom I will always hold fond and special memories.

Deepest sympathy to Gwen and family. I served with Larry in Belgrade and have very fond memories of him during my time there. He had that marvelous British sense of humour and of the ridiculous that I truly appreciate.
