Lawrence Middaugh Obituary

Larry approached me in the halls of Topeka High School in 1956, our mutual senior year. "I believe we are related. We should get together sometime and talk," is what he suggested. My own mother had mentioned the Middaugh name occasionally, but this was in reference to history that predated my own, so I didn't respond. This is my unfortunate mistake, because Larry could have 'filled in the blanks' and made unnecessary much of the later research I fruitlessly pursued. May he rest in peace.

Susan, Clyde & I are so sorry to hear of Larry´s passing. What a loss for you & your family & the island. His kindness, generous spirit and avid conservation work have truly been an inspiration. I pray for comfort.

I was honored to help care for him and you, sweet Susan, as you grappled with losing him. My heart goes out to you and all of those he touched.

Dear Susan,
I knew Larry from many years at MUSC. He was an important contributor both in research and teaching. And I so enjoyed seeing both of you at chamber music events over the years. My best to you and the family.

Dear Susan and Family, My heartfelt condolences to you and yours. I will always have fond memories of Larry in his IOP basement lab where he helped so many of us get started and progress in our research. We missed him when he retired and hope his running spirit will continue to inspire others on Sullivan's Island.

Susan, I was so sorry to hear of Larry's passing. I met both of you when Stan and I first moved to SI. Both of you made us feel welcomed and we enjoyed seeing y'all riding around in your cart. Know you are in our prayers and thoughts.
Kindly, Barbara Pringle Claypoole
