  Lawrence Rothe "Larry", age 94, of Appleton, passed away on Tuesday, February 18, 2014 surrounded by his loving family at Appleton Health Care Center. Larry was born February 8th, 1920, son of the late Henry and Matilda Rothe. Larry proudly served his country in the United States Army during World War II prior to becoming employed by Fox River Bus Lines until 1951. He then worked in the main office of Kimberly Clark Corp for 30 years until his retirement in 1985. In addition to his full time work, he took on many part time jobs to enable him to support his very, very large family. He was a painter, did carpentry, and changed many windows and screens. Larry loved "putzing" in his garden, fishing with his family and clipping his hedges. He also loved birds and watching them eat from his feeders and splash in his bird bath. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. Larry is survived by his "Baby Doll" Doris (Goffard), whom he married on March 23, 1943 at Holy Name Catholic Church. They celebrated 70 years of marriage and lived their entire life in Appleton, where they were members of Sacred Heart Catholic Church since 1950. He is further survived by a sister, Rosie; a brother, Robert; ten children: Bernadette (James) Arps, Patricia (Mike) Guyette, Lawrence Jr. (Julia), Sue Ann, Michael (Jeannie), Deborah (Mike) Plante, Timothy (Judy), David (Robin), Cinthia (Rick) Harp, Joseph (Nicole); 24 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, four brothers, three sisters. A Mass of Resurrection will be celebrated at 11 a.m. on Friday, February 21, at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, 222 E. Fremont St., Appleton. Friends may visit at the church in the Sacred Heart Room on Friday from 9:30 a.m. until the time of service. Interment will take place at Highland Memorial Park. The family would like to extend a special thank you to the staff at St. Elizabeth Hospital for their care and compassion. Thanks also to the Appleton Health Care Center staff who greatly helped during Larry's last hours. Published in Appleton Post-Crescent on Feb. 20, 2014
