Lawrence L. Conrath

January 4, 1932 — January 21, 2022

Lawrence L. Conrath, age 90 of New London, went to his heavenly home on Friday, January 21, 2022 at Kindred Hearts in New London. He was born on January 4, 1932 in the Town of Lebanon, son of the late Louis and Bertha (Janke) Conrath. Lawrence farmed in the Town of Lebanon all of his life. He was a lifelong member of Emanuel Lutheran Church in New London.

Lawrence was very creative and enjoyed going to Tractor Toy Shows. He loved working with his hands, in his younger years building all his own machinery...tractors, corn-pickers, and plows and was known for constructing miniature tractors with very specific detail. He did welding for himself and his neighbors, and built his own antique windmill, as well as engineering the moving of several houses.

Lawrence is survived by cousins, other relatives and special friends: John Knudsen, Butch Van Ark, Chad Karpf, Dan Madden, Dan Madden, Jr., and Leon Sasse. A very special thanks to John and Butch for their devoted care of Lawrence, and also to Dawn, a "special angel" who took care of all three brothers over the years.

Besides his parents, he was preceded in death by his brothers: Harold and Elmer.
