It is with appreciation for a life well lived that the family of William "Bill" Lawlor, husband of the late Helen E.

Born in Saint John on July 27, 1923, he was a son of the late William and Helen (Gillis) Lawlor. Bill was a man of faith who cared deeply for his community. He was a member of Our Lady of the Assumption Church for many years, and tried his very best not to miss Sunday Mass. He was an active member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 69, and served his country during WWII in the Air Force. Bill was an independent business man, either owning or co-owning the following businesses: Regal Wholesale, National Vending Company, Peter J. Lawlor Limited, and the Kwik Pik. He was Past President of the Thistle – St. Andrew’s Curling Club and a member of the Grand Bay Knights of Columbus. He actively volunteered for Meals on Wheels, and was on the Planning Advisory Committee for the town of Grand Bay-Westfield during his time living there. He was a wonderful father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend and will be missed by everyone who knew him.
