My heart and condolences go out to the family and friends connected to Raymond Lawrence. I have only met him briefly, during a few holiday and birthday get-togethers. In those instances, I learned his family truly loved him. He is and will be greatly missed. My sympathy is shared among those who were close. You will all be in my prayers.

Karen, Sherry and the rest of the family, Very sorry to hear of your father's passing. From what Karen has told me, he was an admirable man that had sure seen alot in his lifetime. The definition of a family man, he has sure left behind a wonderful family. I would have liked to have met him, he sounded like he knew alot about alot of things. Sadly, due to travel today we won't be able to pay our respects in person, but our thoughts and prayers are with your entire family. May God be with you. Dan, Brenda, Corey and Frankie LaRue
