Not sure what to say?

I had the pleasure of serving with Larry on the Board of the Samson Foundation for over 15 years and treasured his insights into the economy and politics. Larry was bright, outspoken and caring. May The Lord provide him with eternal peace.

Uncle Lawrence was a fixture in my life. A reliable source of advice, a home away from home, a support for our entire family. With Aunt Louise, I always knew I had family there. It's like losing a pillar of my life that can't be replaced, or forgotten. The world is a touch dimmer without this wise, kind and cheerful man.

Lawrence was the steady hand of wisdom for our family. The gratitude we have for his support and wise counsel is immense. His kindness and thoughtfulness unmatched. He will be missed.

Recalling with fond memories when I was your Legal Assistant drafting estate planning documents (1977-1987), I regret not being able to again share those memories with you other than by this Memorial. You were, and will be continued to be remembered as, that experienced and trusted adviser - my Mentor.

As a former CFO of Leake and Watts, I had a rare privilege to work closely with Larry from 2008 thru 2018. I will forever fondly remember Larry's commitment to excellence.
