Obituary: Lawrence Edward Lathrop

Lawrence Edward Lathrop, son to Herb and Doris, lived June 4,1949 - March 29, 2012. Larry is survived by his siblings, Leslie, Dennis, Gerry and Anthony; loving wife of 40 years, Kathryn; sons, James and Benjamin; and grandchildren Sabrina, Andrea, Vivian and Xander. Larry was a great salesman for a large portion of his life and towards the end of his career he worked at Eagle Valley Children's Home where he loved working with the children. He was a passionate Scouter that loved the outdoors and what the scouting program did for boys. He was also a member of the Knights of Columbus where he volunteered his time to help his community. Larry battled with Parkinson's Disease for almost 30 years but this never gave him a negative outlook on life and he still lived life to the fullest for as long as he could. Larry was a wise and caring man that touched many lives, as well as a hero to his sons and he will be dearly missed by all his family and friends.

Services will be held at St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Community, 3000 N. Lompa Ln., Carson City, NV on Saturday, April 14, 2012 at 10 o'clock am.

There will be a reception and celebration of life immediately following at the home of the family.
