In Remembrance
Earl George Laughrey
6/21/1939 - 7/20/2009
Earl was a Charter Member of the Saline Lions Club since its inception in May of 1975. During his membership years, Earl held numerous positions within the Club. He is a past president and he was the Club's Secretary when Earl passed in 2009. Besides holding numerous offices within the Saline Lions Club, Earl was a strong supporter of the Lions of Michigan District where he held several positions as well. Earl was the 2008 recipient of the Ken E. Lautzenheiser Award recognizing his contributions to the district.
Earl was a dedicated member who would be present at every event, even while he was in failing health. Earl is missed and not a meeting goes by where his name is not mentioned.
