As a freshman, he set a program record by scoring 442 points in 1955-56. In 1956-57, he was a key contributor for the Jaspers as they garnered a top-20 national ranking.

Lawrence MD, age 82 of Oronoque Village, Stratford, Connecticut and 60 year resident of Fairfield County, passed away Friday, November 30, 2012 at St. Vincent's Medical Center in Bridgeport after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. He and his family resided in Fairfield, CT before retiring to Oronoque in 2007. Born in Manhattan, he was the son of the late Harry Austin Lawrence and Geraldine Walwyn Lawrence Johnson. He was the beloved husband of Lois Browne Lawrence. Survivors in addition to his wife Lois include three loving daughters, Julie Lawrence of Riverdale, NY; Carolyn Dion and her husband Michael of New Milford, CT; Maryleigh Antoun, her husband Jon and grandson Jonathan Lawrence Antoun of Harrisburg, PA; two nephews, David and Daniel Lawrence of greater Boston MA. He was predeceased by three brothers: Larry (Austin), Gerry and Irving. Dr. Lawrence received his Bachelor's degree from Manhattan College, Bronx, NY in 1953 and a Doctorate in Medicine in 1957 from Howard University in Washington, DC. He began his medical career as an intern at St. Vincent's Hospital, Bridgeport, CT. Dr. Lawrence established his private practice in Internal Medicine in 1962 and ran this practice until 1988 when he moved to the Administrative Staff of St. Vincent's Medical Center to become its first Chief Medical Officer. He devoted his life to the service of others and remained active in his community. He served as President of the Medical/Dental staff from 1984-1986 and as a member of the SVMC Board of Trustees from 1985-1988. He served on the Board of Directors of the Park City Primary Care Center and the Daughters of Charity National Health System Insurance. In addition, he also served a 9 year term as a Board member on Special Needs, the final two years as Board Chair. He tended to the residents of St. Joseph's Manor, and in 1999 received the Mother M. Angela Teresa Award for Service. Additionally he was physician to the Jesuit priests of Fairfield University. He will long be remembered at the Medical Center for his passion and commitment to quality patient care and to the mission and core values of the Daughters of Charity. His unwavering commitment to excellence consistently made him a "first" in most everything he did. Yet, he never defined his life as being a "first", but rather as doing his best. Having broken many barriers to entry himself, John was a teacher and mentor to many interns and young residents who began their careers at the Hospital. He will always be remembered as a truly "gentle" man whose compassion manifested itself in countless unpublished acts of generosity both personally and professionally. John was an avid golfer throughout his life. He served as Co-Chair of the SWIM Golf Tournament and the St. Vincent's Invitational Golf Tournament. He was Brooklawn Country Club's first black member. His friends called him Fairway John because his shots always landed in the fairway. He was a member Emeritus of The Guardsmen of Fairfield County. He enjoyed many summers with family and friends at his Oak Bluffs home on Martha's Vineyard, MA. Funeral services will be held Wednesday, December 5, 2012 at 10:30am, meeting directly at St. James Church of Stratford, 2070 Main Street, Stratford, CT with a Mass of Christian Burial. Interment will be private. Friends may call Tuesday 3:00pm - 8:00pm in the Redgate-Hennessy Funeral Home, Main Street and Gorham Place, Trumbull, CT 06611.

As well, please keep Syl in your prayers as she too continues to experience pain and discomfort with her injured leg but as Kevin says, "She soldiers on." Kevin at this time has opted not to have surgery due to the fact that the soluton would require Fusing with screws and prpbably a six month recuperative period. Neither one of those sounds like fun. He continues Physical Therapy, massage and some Yoga. Pray that this works for Kevin. Thank you. God Bless. Phil Colon Colon, Philip J. (MC1962) # - # - # - # - # 2012-Dec-08 @ 11:19 |

2012-Dec-08ENDNOTE: Stop doing Gooferment paperwork in Churchhttp://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/126978.htmlNovember 23, 2012 The Church Lost the Marriage Debate Decades Ago: It's Time To Get Out of the Game Posted by Ryan W. McMaken on November 23, 2012 02:48 PM *** begin quote *** Another reason to give up on the civil marriage game is to recognize that the American bishops actually threw in the towel on this decades ago when they made peace with no-fault divorce. According to Catholic theology, unless the marriage started out as unlawful (i.e., is incestuous or invalid for another reason) marriage does not end until one of the parties dies. Case closed. No exceptions. It says this in numerous places in the New Testament. Yet, the American bishops recognize the state's alleged prerogative to define a "marriage" as a union between divorced people. This violates what the Church has always taught. So, why is a fake and adulterous marriage (as defined by Catholic theology) acceptable as long as it's between a man and a woman? Yet, a fake and adulterous marriage is not acceptable if between a man and a man? Apparently, the state can recognize that a man who has been divorced 5 times is "married" if the state says so. And the bishops have no problem with this. None of these situations is morally acceptable for Catholics of course, and never have been, but the American bishops abandoned their political consistency on this in the 60s when no-fault divorce was accepted because the bishops were either too eager to compromise or too asleep at the switch to take a stand back then. So, you'll forgive the public for not noticing when the American bishops recently decided that "oh, this time, on gay marriage, we're going to stick to our guns." It's time to cut the cord. Let's swallow our pride and say that we've been wrong about marriage ever since that day centuries ago when we started allowing civil authorities to decide who was married and who was not. It's time to say that all civil law about marriage is null and void, and that we don't care what the government has to say about it. Divorced people aren't "married" any more than gay people are. If other private individuals wish to define matters differently, they can have marriages in their own churches or living rooms or where ever, and the state should be removed from it just as the state should be removed from the activities all consenting adults. *** end quote *** [JR: Interesting when secular conservative writers have insights into the Catholic Church. When they are spot on, then it's even better. Whule it may not make a big difference at this point, seems like a start to deny performing a "state marriage" in Church. Should take down the American flag as well. If the State / King is not going to recognize the First Amendment, then it's time to fight. Excommunicating all the CINO politicians would be a good start. Closing the Catholic hospitals is not "unimaginable" either.] # - # - # - # - # |
