Lawrence was a great guy. I loved to watch him and Diane together, after 60 years of marriage, they still acted like they was on their honeymoon. He will be greatly missed.
Uncle Lawrence was one who did acts of kindness quietly and behind the scenes. He was such a joy to be around. I’ve always looked up to him with gratitude, respect and admiration. Steve loved to talk to him about growing things and would challenge him to see who could grow the biggest tomato. I wonder if he will be gardening in heaven?
Diane and Karen,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Lawrence is someone we will
always remember, and will be missed. Remember the good times, lean on each other and your friends. God has brought you this far, He will not leave you now. We love you.

Karan, I am praying for you and your mother, confident that our loving Heavenly Father is even now surrounding you both with His peace. How wonderful that your father lived such a long and vibrant life that obviously impacted the lives of all who knew him in such positive ways! Precious memories are great to think back upon and to share with those sweet grandchildren!
Love,

Mrs. Diane & Family,
I am so sorry for the loss of Mr. Lawrence. He was such a sweetheart & I always loved walking thru the cutting dept at Kellwood, seeing his little sideways grin & always getting me a big hug. We had some great times out there with everyone. I’m sure all the Kellwood gang welcomed him thru Heavens Gate with open arms & are sharing a lot of old stories & memories together right now. 🙂
I pray that God will wrap His loving arms around you and provide comfort as only He can do and will give you the much strength to face the difficult days ahead without your soulmate by your side. 🙏
RIP my sweet friend & I will see you on the other side. ♥️
Love & Hugs,
Saralyn (McDowell) Smith
