In 2000 I decided to get out of the construction industry 46
years was enough. It took to 2001 to complete the work on
hand and shut down L.W. Laws Construction Inc. Ann retired
from Honeywell and we started to live the dream.
In 2002 we went to Oklahoma for a drag race while in Tulsa I
looked up the family name Kraus. I found 10 more listed in the
phone book so I sent out a note to all of them. Then in just a
few weeks I received a note back from my birth Mother. This is
a long story, however, we have spent the last 8 years getting to
know each other. She's now 92 and going strong.
In 2006 we thought it may be the right time to sell our Phoenix
home and move. We set out on a new adventure thinking that
we would down size and move to Durango, Co. The home in
Durango turned out to be larger than the Phoenix home plus it
was a fixer upper however, after 2 years we got it done.
Here it is 2010 and we just found out that Larry Jr. is going to
have a baby girl, our 1st great grand child. Steve and Jen just
had a baby boy a few months ago and now we are missing the
family. Next adventure is to move back to Arizona, Prescott is
our 1st choice. We will keep you informed in the next BIO 5 or
10 years down the road.
Looking forward to seeing everyone at the 50th.
