Lawrence Lover Obituary
Son of Lawrence Lover and Gloria Mackie of Farmington, N.H. Larry was a Farmington High School graduate class of 1963 and an amazing three star athlete, recently being inducted into the Farmington High School Athletics Hall of Fame. After High School, Larry joined the Army. Larry worked for Eastern Air Devices, the Union Telephone Company and Jarvis Cutting tools for many years before a relaxing retirement. Larry went onto become President of the Farmington 500 Boys Club and coached hundreds of kids for many years and truly put his heart and soul into coaching.
Larry also loved the outdoors, watching sporting events, fishing and taking scenic drives, gardening, animals and spending time with his children, grandchildren and girlfriend Gail Catalfo.
Larry is survived by his sister, Roberta Turgeon; his three children and their spouses, Christopher Lover and his wife Sloane Rogers, Carrie Lover Conway and her husband Justin Conway, Shaun Lover and his wife Michelle Lover along with his five grandchildren, Shaun Lover Jr, Ryan Lover, Brady Lover, Alyssa Stonesifer, Adeline Conway; and his girlfriend Gail Catalfo.
Larry was deeply loved by his family and friends.
In lieu of services, the family requests donations are to be made in Larry's honor to the Cocheco Valley Humane Society- Capital Campaign, to support the new building in Dover, N.H. Larry adopted many of his dogs from CVHS and loved his dogs, spoiling each one of them.

I met Larry about two years ago when he moved to White Rock Community in Bow, NH. He was a great friend and fun to be around. He got trivia games going so all could join in. I loved to hear him talk about his granchildren. They meant the world to him. He will be missed by all of us. My deepest sympathy to all of his family and Gail.
