SHERWOOD, LAWRENCE RAYMOND, who left this world on April 23, 2026, at the age of 87, after a courageous battle with A.L.S. He was born on August 25, 1938, in Iola, Kansas.

Lawrence was the son of Ferris Sherwood and Beulah Merryman Sherwood. He was preceded in death by his wife, Bulinda Sherwood.  Lawrence and Bulinda are survived by children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and sister..

A proud patriot, Lawrence answered the call of duty during the Vietnam War, serving stateside in the US Army.  After that, he went on to drive a truck for Ruan Transport for over two decades.

Lawrence was a man of many passions, but none as strong as his love for flying. The skies were his second home, and he found true joy and freedom amidst the clouds. If he wasn't flying, you would likely find him with a fishing pole in his hand.

A service to honor Lawrence's life will be held on April 29, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at the Geneva Cemetery, located at 1936 600 St, Colony, KS 66015. Family, friends, and all whose lives were touched by Lawrence are invited to join.

May Lawrence rest in peace and may his soul find eternal flight in the boundless skies he so dearly loved.
