Sad news alright Jimmy. My family and Bro McKay's family go a long way back. Lawrence's Dad was our preacher for many years and a dear friend to my parents as long as I can remember. Me and another Preacher, friend, visited Bro McKay back when and Lawrence had just put in an application to the B'ham police department for a job. I remember like it was yesterday, him coming into the room we were in and saying, Well the fats in the fire now Dad. He was some more excited. He served many years on the force and retired from there, I think.
Hate to hear of a friend passing, but rejoice in knowing where he is now. MVB ES
Really sad to hear the news of another Comer alum passing on. I remember when Lawrence suffered a season ending injury with a broken back. Does anybody remember if it was his junior year or senior year? The 51 year book does show him in uniform but who knows at what time during the season the pictures were taken.
