Lawrence G. McGee

peacefully.

Larry was born August 30th, 1938 in Manhattan NY, to Bernard and Edna

McGee along with his brothers Bernie, Dan, Tom, Edna, Pat , Bill and

Jack. Larry is survived by wife Eleanore Wahmann McGee, his sons Larry,

Greg, Timmy and Chris and his daughters Alice and Beth. He will be

dearly missed by his adoring 18 grandchildren.

He met Eleanore the love of his life during his high school years in

Throggs, Neck, New York while playing professional soccer for the New

York Sports Club. After they married they moved their 6 children to

Pearl River. Larry served his country in the Armed Forces from

1959-1961 in Seoul, Korea. Upon arriving home he then worked in

construction until 1966 when he joined the New York City Police

Department. He retired in 1979 at the rank of Sergeant. Larry

continued his career as a Sr Vice President in Property Management for

Bankers Trust until 2000.

Following his final retirement he spent enormous amounts of time with

his grandchildren around his hometown of Pearl River and numerous hockey

rinks along the east coast. If not with his family, he could be seen

fitting in a few rounds of golf at Blue Hill Golf Course. This quote

from Shakespear, is how he will remembered by his family and friends,

"His life was gentle, and the elements so mixed in him that Nature might

stand up and say to all the world, This was a man."

In leu of flowers the family requests donations to United Hospice of

Rockland, 11 Stokum Lane, New City, NY 10956 in remembrance of Larry

McGee.
