Marilyn and Family,
Those of us at Beloved Community Center were saddened to learn about your loss and our loss of Lawrence. He was truly a friend beloved. During our Monday staff meeting, those who knew him shared uplifting stories about what a caring, giving, hardworking, and spirit-led person he was. And, of course, we all spoke about eating the food he cooked.
We know that accepting his loss will be difficult, but please be comforted by recalling what a wonderful person he was. As time goes by, we pray that the memories will become sweeter.
Much love and peace from us all at BCC to you and your family,
