Wetherby's Funeral Home in Jackson, in charge of arrangements. The funeral service will be held at the Rives Baptist Church on 2800 Berry Rd, Rives Junction with Pastor Dyke Cyphers officiating. Interment will be at Draper Cemetery. Lawrence was born in Blackman Township, Michigan on May 17, 1917 to Arlo and Eunice Allen. He attended Leslie High School. He married Wilma Reynolds of Tompkins Township on May 25, 1940. Their wedding announcement at the time wished "them a long, happy, and prosperous life with many blessings and few clouds to dim their life's sunshine". These blessings were realized over their almost 69 years of marriage. Lawrence was a successful and respected dairy farmer from 1940 to 1976 and crop farmer from 1940 to 2008. He served on the Michigan Milk Producers Association board and Leslie Co-Op Mill board. He and his wife raised four daughters. He was a faithful and loving example of a godly husband and father living his faith in God and Jesus Christ before his wife, his daughters and their families. He was a member of the Rives Baptist Church where he also served as a trustee and deacon. Surviving Lawrence are three daughters, Margaret Withey of Grand Blanc, Mi., Doris (John) Gibbs of Jackson, Phyllis (James) Lindstrom of Jackson, son in law Larry Rowley; eighteen grandchildren and twenty-four great grandchildren, brother Eugene (Norma) Allen; and a host of nieces, nephews and special friends. Lawrence was preceded in death by his wife Wilma, daughter, Barbara Rowley, son-in-law Raymond Withey, sister Mildred Fellows, and parents Arlo and Eunice Allen. The family wishes to thank all those at Vista Grand Villa Nursing Facility, Allegiance Hospital, Great Lakes Health Care and especially the loving and faithful care of the Right at Home caregivers who have provided wonderful care to him over the past several years. In lieu of flowers, the family has request donations be made to a Rives Baptist Church memorial fund.
