Please accept my profound condolences at this time. I had interacted with Lawrence for many years during Remembrance Day services for Lancaster. He was always there to play the Last Post, even while under the weather, you could not deter him. He was a pleasure to chat with, and very kind to his comrades'. May you take comfort knowing we share in your loss and strength from our prayers.
Sincerely,
Paul D Smith

Lois and family, We were saddened to read the obituary for Laurence. We have fond memories of him from Lancaster Baptist Church and Saint Mary's Band. We are grateful for the way Laurence heard and obeyed the voice of the Lord Jesus, who said, "Follow Me." We are grateful for the pleasant, thoughtful and conscientious way Laurence lived. We are thankful for his reputation of hard work and integrity. Most of all, we are thankful for the words of the Lord Jesus, who said, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me though he die, yet shall he live." John 11:25 We are remembering you in prayer.

I will always remember Uncle Laurence with love and fond memories – his smile, welcoming personality and love of family will never be forgotten and will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He was a great man who showed genuine interest when talking to people and enjoyed taking many pictures at our family gatherings – I’m sure he has a collection of photos to be envied (a lost art in the digital world of today). Sending you strength today and peace in all the days ahead. Love Celeste, Rob, Josh and Zac Caswell

My condolences to Lois and Family. After reading all the tributes, I must agree. A great man who loved life and his fellow man. He will be missed. Made memories for so many.
I had applied for the posting of refrigeration and AC tech at White Refrigeration in the spring of 81. . My interview was “jump in the service vehicle, we are going to work “. We went to 4 different sites. An Ice machine. 2 walk-in coolers and an A/C unit at EPR. After spending the day together he smiles and says “start tomorrow “. Laurence and his brothers treated me like family… many suppers were had with Laurence and Lois and Allen and Hazel
Laurence had many interests and talents. He was a great positive influence in my life. He will be remembered
RIP. LAW

My condolences to the family of Lawrence White. I worked in the refrigeration trade all of my life and on two occasions worked for Lawrence during two strikes at the mill where I worked for several years. Lawrence was a great person to work for and I have known him all of my working life. I was also from St. Stephen so we had something in common. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him and may I see him one the other side.

My heartfelt condolences to the White family on the loss of Laurence. I am truly saddened by his passing. Laurence was not only a coworker but also a mentor and a true gentleman. His expertise in the HVACR trade was unparalleled, and his guidance significantly influenced my career and personal growth. Working with him at White Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, NBCC, and on international projects was a privilege that I will always cherish.
Laurence's kindness, wisdom, and professionalism made a lasting impact on everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. My thoughts and prayers are with Lois, Ross, Cheryl, Christa, and his brothers Allen, Guy, Ronnie, and Gordie and family during this difficult time.
Laurence was more than just a mentor to me; he was a guiding light and a source of constant support. His belief in my abilities gave me the confidence to push my boundaries and strive for excellence. I will always remember our long discussions, his invaluable advice, and the warmth with which he treated everyone. Laurence's legacy will live on in the memories we hold dear and the lives he touched. He will be deeply missed.

I was saddened to learn of Laurence's passing, earlier today. We last saw each other a number of years ago when he was on a business trip to Winnipeg. We had dinner and spent a few hours together talking about family and his work. Sadly that was our last meeting. My father was very fond of Laurence and spoke of him many times before he too passed. My deepest condolences to all members of the White family .

So sorry Lois and all the family for loosing such a kind great man.Lawrence taught me refrigeration and air conditioning in 1989-1990, and when I graduated I worked for Lawrence's former company white refrigeration, at sobeys lock lomond, while Lawrence ran that total renovation at sobeys, I respected and really thought the world of Lawrence, even though I was probably hard on his nerves from time to time, Lawrence was a great man, and the whole white family is a very wonderful family, my deepest sorry for Lawrence and all of the white family members,and also the refrigeration and air conditioning lost one of the greats in this industry.
