Jeffrey Lawrence Obituary
SPENCERVILLE -- Jeffrey Lynn Lawrence, age 69, passed away March 26, 2025, at 2:06 p.m., at Roselawn Manor, Spencerville.
He was born August 5, 1955, in Lima, to Lloyd and Karen (Thompson) Lawrence. His father preceded him in death and his mother survives in Lima. On September 24, 1977, he married Brenda Parks Lawrence who also survives.
He is also survived by their sons: Nathan (Heather) Lawrence and Kyle (Kady) Lawrence both of Lima; plus his grandchildren, Jaxon, Everleigh, and Wyatt Lawrence; his brothers, David (Julie) Lawrence of Lafayette, Steve (Darrilyn) Lawrence of New Haven, IN, and Doug (Michelee) Lawrence of Punta Gorda, FL.
He was a graduate of Allen East High School and retired after 38 years from General Dynamics Land Systems as a production supervisor. He loved bowling and golfing, but not near as much as he loved his grandchildren.
Visitation will be Monday, March 31, 2025, from 3:00 - 5:00 p.m., at the Shawnee Chapel of Chiles-Laman Funeral & Cremation Services. His service will begin at 5:00 p.m., in the funeral home with his brother, David Lawrence officiating.
