My last Christmas Card
My last Christmas with mum
Old & new
Dad n Mum
I have sent notice that I will be closing this Web -
The main reason - all The Lawrence Family Plots are currently filled -
so this is a good time to - sadly when needed another Forever Missed Web could be started :
This web Barry Lawrence Butches Family created by Ernest Edward Lawrence jnr & Denise Ann Lawrence with contributions from family photos :
A lotto hours from Dad Ernest Edward Lawrence jnr ~ putting forward family photos and family history this took us almost a full year :
will be available to browse only in the near future - when I have added some more family history for the future generations to look back on :
hopefully with some Walmsley Family History ie Lilian Robina Lawrence neė Walmsley aka mum : History ,
whilst I am here to clarify -
Ernest Edward Lawrence jnr - Lilian Robina Lawrence neė Walmsley loved and supported all their 8 children equally the same through their entire lives : no one received more or less than the other :
They were both generous and kind implicitly selfless :
Mum gave everyone befor herself thruout her entire life years :
Dad was kind and also selfless toward Others :
I have a cheque enclosed here that dad wrote to help me out - during my physical conditions - being I lived in Australia:
2014 he dadwas no spring chicken tho still as he always did - dug deep into his pockets to help his kids ~
whilst I really appreciated his help ~ I just couldn’t get myself to Bank the cheque ~ I never told him ~
It would of helped me at the time - however - that’s not what I was used to and I certainly wasn’t going to accept help from an ageing parent :
All is good ~ it made my day to know he still cared even tho he and mum divorced years prior :
So - if anyone went snoop dė snoop thru dads cheque book - remember his kindness was always appreciated and always he offered -
Sometimes that has more value and impact than the Cheque offered itself .
Rest Peacefully Dad n Mum you were simply the best :
loved by all your children and grandchildren and great grandchildren :
Mum 9/7/1940 On your Birthday always remembered with love

Paul Lawrence
Paul Lawrence 11~ 6~ 1964 * 17~ 6~ 2023
Paul
obviously I only have Your * Paul’s formative years ~ being I have lived in Australia for over 42 years -
I can’t say * My little brother as you were over 6 ft by the age of 10 n still growing !
I have lots of memories ~
Paul trotting off to Finchie ~ to collect tadpoles -
Finchie ? Can’t say I know where or what it was a park I think with obviously a pond ~ I think Finchie farm :
Crab Apples : Always recall Paul saying we are going to collect Crab Apples Never brought any home tho ~ he’d eaten them at the Park :
gawd I’m sure he got a belly ache .
School : what’s that ? A little terror ? No not quite ~ tho a few calls to go collect him or coax him off the school roof during lesson times* it was a little pre- fab room So I suppose technically not a roof ?? haaaa :
@6/7/8 age ? ~ seriously ~ who does that Paul did and was so stubborn he wouldn’t come down untill family turned up -
his reason I was bored :
good gawd ~ laughed later - tho poor teachers .
Onions : Raw - Onions who does that ? Paul did - chomp chomp - yewww -
How could you Paul : eeewww Paul I would say -
I love them Paul would reply :
Sugar bread - Yuuk - what are you eating Paul ? - Sugar butties
me: how could you Paul ?
Paul - There lovely - Me - no thanks 12 loaves of bread lined up on the shelf after delivery- All opened n the crusts gone -
Sugar Butties
Mr Ming - On weekends Paul loved to Trott off to * Ming’s Double Decker Bus - well a bus ~ and go with others in community on a day trip ~ said he had great fun :
Loved his independence as a jnr. * too much .
David & Paul : 12 years old & 13 years :
climb out of the bedroom @ 3-00 am ish onto the front door cover * concrete slab :
Freezing cold - Ground full of snow -Pitch black - and off they went * onto the Milk Delivery Truck
To hand deliver The Milk Round - Jumping on n off the milk wagon
Nabbed really ~ thinking no one in the house would notice
Dad -4-00 am Omg - those little hmmmm - * no he didn’t swear
out he’d go and brings them back - not once mind you Thrice !!
poor dad - Why are you doing that ? your going to get killed !!
Denise it’s pitch black they’ll slip off the truck !!
We get paid said Paul :
here I’ll give you the money - don’t go again - or you’ll be in trouble , said Dad -
Dad : Here Paul put them boxing gloves on - see if you want to join the boxing gym- have a spar with Kevin-
Kevin n Paul 2 mins later Paul grabs his boxing gloves by his teeth n drags them off his hands I’m not do that seething with anger thru his teeth *
maybe Kevin landed one .
Did we all laugh .
Oh well - he definitely was a bit of a handful- at times :
I think he was even shipped down to a boarding school - truant school so something must been difficult *
I don’t know I was working so missed all the fun at times ~ Except when a 7 ft man in a suit knocked on the door
Me : Hello
him: I’m school truant officer
Me : Dad school truant officer
Dad: Hey you get down that path mate n don’t come back - !!
# defo Paul I imagine wasn’t staying put - when he was supposed to * in school !
I recall dad - I’ve got a Dossier - a Dossier I thought laughing to myself - what a posh word to use * he meant he had a notebook Re Paul & history : obviously as Traunt Officer/ school had knocked n been sent away !
good old dad - suffered no fools:
I think the answer may possibly be above :
Had a few visits over the years tho time has mellowed my memory as I only recall Paul spoiling everyone me, his niece - my mum -
land ringing from Kent where he lived & wales when on holiday: and spending an hour chatting to mum on the phone :
calling in with David to say hello ~ .
Liverpool Fans: Taking Liam aged 2 years ~ to a special Liverpool game - the last befor the seating changed to stands only - then coming home to spot himself on TV with Liam perched up on his shoulders ~ which would of made them combined almost 7 ft high ~ any wonder he was easy to spot in the crowd : Paul was made up n got it on video sales:
Shopping: To buy a Japanese plant a Bonsai he said he loved them : & Have coffee was a lovely day :
knocking on my hotel to go have a Dance make sure I enjoyed my 40 th Birthday ~
Buying me an old car to drive for £500 ready for when I was on holiday ~ I don’t think it was MOT ? Or something * whatever that meant haa ,
so I gave that a big miss haaa ~ and left the car to Paul to use .
he insisted it’s ok to drive :
Not forgetting: :
all the family games we kids had - dress ups - play acting - normal close and loving family Christmas’s - how much Paul loved mum ~
And having me as an older sister :)
Paul n David & Danny Williams bringing in Those pesky crawly things !!
Ferrets
Not one 3 , after you’d all been rabbit hunting = eeeek I’d scream - get them out of here as * Paul David & Danny all laughed their heads off !! Oh to be a sister :))
Always softly spoken - always spoke good of anyone -
I don’t know your/ his adult life ~ As I stayed in with mum / dad / Debbie / Kevin & Angela / dad & Maureen during my visits , Paul was a Quiet natured Brother who was closest to David :
rest peacefully Paul no more battles - no more pain :
Your sister Denise

History Lily Lawrence née Kelly : husband of Ernest Edward Lawrence Snr:
an old letter apparently read :
highly possible mistaking these points .
1: looks like Ill bring Arthur up alone .
2: Signed by Lily .
this letter was my grandma , dads mum *
Lilly Lawrence née : Kelly writing about one of her twin sons * Arthur , meaning he lost his * twin Kevin so she Lily would bring Arthur up alone , ie, without his twin brother Kevin .
This was Not my mum * Lily , Lilian Robina Lawrence née: Walmsley .
no surprise “ people jump to conclusions “ . As double names in the family Lily Lawrence née Kelly & Lily * Lilian Robina Lawrence née Walmsley:
It was 2018 dad mentioned he had lost twin brothers Arthur & Kevin ,
So clarification:

Butch Forever Missed Love Maxine XxXx
What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You've got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright
[Pre-Chorus:]
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh oh
[Verse 2:]
How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you
[Pre-Chorus:]
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh oh
[Bridge:]
Give me all of you
Cards on the table, we're both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it's hard
[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you
I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh oh

Liverpool ~ Let it Be
Mum & Dad both being brought up in Liverpool , altho their family History has strong ties with Britain & Wales for Mum , Ireland & Barbados for Dad , this makes a part of the multicultural family history , With Chinese for Mark with his Wife Vicky & their daughters Lili` `ma & Mai `Li
we have a wonderful multicultural history for generations to come :
Throw in Australian/Irish for Liam & Brendan & Australia / Tasmanian for Brendan & Cindy children Ocean & Luna , They are the first line of Dinky Di Aussies
what an exotic world we have in 20th Century and bringing it all so close its unreal ,
Not like the 1930s & ealier when , where you were born is where you met & married & had the next generation , due to the isolation from the rest of our world & the travel required to meet different races & cultural backgrounds very few had the opportunity to do so ,
