It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Lawrence Arthur McNeil on May 13, 2020 in Nanaimo General Hospital at the age of 88.
Lawrence will be lovingly remembered by his devoted wife of 62 years, Kay McNeil, children Laurie John (Rick), John (Jane) McNeil, Paul (Tina) McNeil, Mary (Todd Nichol, as well as brother Roy (Doris) McNeil, sister Hilda Higgs and all his much loved grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Lawrence was predeceased by his mother Katherine McNeil, his father William McNeil, brother Gordon McNeil, sister Evelyn McPhee, granddaughter Tanya McNeil and brother-in-law Joe Higgs.
Lawrence was always a social man who kept active in all the things he loved. He enjoyed fishing, camping, gardening, collecting antiques and was an active member of the Antique Tractor Club and Nanaimo Fish & Game Club.
Many will remember Lawrence demonstrating his woodworking skills with his sticker, his mossed prized possession, in shows all over the Island such as VIEX and Duncan Forest Museum.
Due to Covid there will be no celebration of life. Lawrence's final resting place is in Cedar Memorial Gardens.
