Obituary:
Lawrence Paul Bouche peacefully went to his heavenly reward on Thursday morning, December 11, 2014. He was born on July 20, 1914 in Marinette, Wisconsin to Lawrence and Mary (Langer) Bouche. The family moved to Kaukauna in 1934.
Lawrence long aspired to live to the age of 100 and his birthday was joyfully celebrated in July with 30 family and friends in attendance.
Lawrence played the violin and loved listening to his collection of classical music, reciting a copious list of his favorite composers in alphabetical order. In his younger years he was the neighborhood meteorologist, pontificating at length and educating those around him in the science of weather. He was also quite knowledgeable in early electricity and electronics.
Family was precious to Lawrence and he enjoyed many games of sheepshead at holidays and cookouts.
