Note | From Nina Graham, 806 S 3rd St, Odessa, MO 64076-1455 (816)633-4094 4/23/96. Rocky Mountain News, Denver, CO, Tuesday, 28 Jan. 1958, by Bill Brenneman. Lawrence Lee moved to Colorado with his parents when he was six years old. The family first moved to Fowler and then to Ft. Lupton, where Lawrence completed high school and worked in his father's construction business. In 1934 he went to work for Colorado Central as a meter reader in Ft. Lupton; went in 1936 to Johnstown; later to Golden and finally in 1945 to Englewood, working enroute as a line crew foreman, service investigator and collector. Along the way he became interested in civic affairs. He helped run Golden's big civic celebration, Golden Days. In 1952 he was made director of the Chamber of Commerce in Englewood and in 1954-56 was President. In 1955 he was elected President of the Englewood Kiwanis Club. Certificates on his wall testify to the community's feeling of how much Lawrence has contributed. He headed a citizen's committee of 32 persons, who planned for and conducted the election at which writing of a home-rule charter was approved. The next step was to elect delegates to a charter convention. He planned to help but did not want to be a Charter delegate. |
