Aunt Jeanie, Angela and Fella,



Sorry to hear about Uncle Lawrences's passing. We will sadly miss him. As gruff as he could be at times, I will always remember him as one of the very few positive male role models in my life. He was my only favorite Uncle, and not because he always had candy to shut me up but because he always had time for me.



Love, Johanna and family

Uncle Lawrence will always be in my heart. There wasn't a day I did not pray for peace for him. I know he has it now.
