Lawrence worked at the Bruno Hotel for 17 years with his brother, Wilfred. Next, Lawrence worked at the Hillcrest Turkey farm for a number of years. His last job, before retiring, was for the Town of Bruno. Long hours and physical labor were never too much. Lawrence loved the freedom of the outdoors and enjoyed doing yard work, hilling potatoes and trimming trees after a day's work. In his spare time, Lawrence also enjoyed going for walks, fishing, playing cards, and buying and selling vehicles. Lawrence always had time to be Grandpa to his four grandchildren, attending whatever event they may be in and always asking what they were up to.

Lawrence took great pride in his work and making sure the job was done.
