Lawrence Bole Driscoll ll

1932 - 2020

Lawrence Bole Driscoll II entered into eternal rest on Saturday, August 15, 2020, at the age of 88. He was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on August 3, 1932, to the late Roselind Leidinger Driscoll and Harold Shea Driscoll, Sr. and grew up in the city. He lived on the Northshore for the last 35 years. Lawrence was preceded in death by his brothers Harold Shea Driscoll, Jr., and Donald Leidinger Driscoll and his youngest son, Daniel Joseph Driscoll. He is survived by the love of his life, Helen Moran Driscoll, his wife of 70 years. Lawrence is also survived by his children Constance D. Allerton (William), Lawrence B. Driscoll, Jr., and Robert G. Driscoll (Suzanne), his grandchildren Amy Allerton, Timothy D. Allerton (Kelly), Sean P. Allerton (Mary Erin), Colleen Allerton-Hollier (Dan), Kelli Sias (Tom), Erica Driscoll, and his great-grandchildren Layne Szymanski, Ruby Driscoll, Jacob, Allyson, and Brady Janusa, Harry and Finn Allerton. Lawrence retired as a regional sales manager for Riviana Foods, Inc. Retirement meant rounds and rounds of golf and finally, a hole in one! He was also known as the "squirrel whisperer," having rescued and raised a couple of abandoned squirrels. The past few years found him in his easy chair with Cindy Lou, his puppy sweetheart, close by keeping him company. The man was never known to be seen wearing a pair of shorts.
