LAWRENCE JAMES KIESMAN
September 20, 1944 - October 27, 2019
Survived by his wife Audrey, of 54 years; his five children; 16 grandchildren; four great-grandchildren; siblings; in-laws and many relatives and friends.
Lawrence's greatest passions were: his family - including every student that he transported to school throughout his 37 year career - his meat cutting - auctions - antiques - wildlife and his music.
As per Lawrence's wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be no formal service. There will be a private family service held at a later date.
Please remember Lawrence and keep his memory alive in your hearts. Fond memories will last forever, we will miss you!
Flowers graciously declined.
Think of me when you're lonely
Think of me when you're blue
Think of me when I'm far away
For I'll be thinking of you.

Lawrence helped me up to school. He was always there for me, when I heard about his passing and I fell to the ground. He told me when he had cancer. I cried, he was a good bus driver me and my sister always enjoyed his stories. Him and I always sung a Johnny Cash song. - Posted by: Nicholas (I consider him as family ) on: Oct 13, 2020

A very true and kind friend for 14 years, we miss his cheerful voice every day. He was very brave always in the face of his illness. Much love to Audrey on your sad loss from us all. x - Posted by: Tony, Sally, Jack, Danny and Tiegan (Dear Friend and Bus Driver) on: Jan 12, 2020

Our thoughts are with you Audrey and all the family at this time. There are so many memories that Lawrence has left with all of us! He was kind and caring.. fun loving, honesty and always a gentleman. Gone, but certainly never forgotten. - Posted by: Wayne & Eileen Wood (Friends) on: Nov 08, 2019

Lawrence was such a great neighbour, coming to the rescue whenever mom got into a bind, whether it was a skunk in the yard, something that didn't start or something she couldn't do. Mom would use the departure and arrival of his bus to recognize what time it was ...not sure what she used when school was out! Lawrence was one of those people that you couldn't help but like, so full of life, stories and sharing himself. He is missed, but always remembered. Our thoughts are with you Audrey, we trust you will remember all the good times you and Lawrence had to help you get thru those tough days. - Posted by: Bernice Drohomereski/Cheryl Newman (Neighbour) on: Nov 05, 2019

Mr Kiesman was the most delightful person, my boys got the pleasure of being on his bus for their first 3 years of school and always came off laughing about something Mr K said or did, we became great friends over those years and I will miss getting his spontaneous phone calls and chats we had over the years. Our deepest condolences to his family, we'll miss you Mr K. lots of love Logan, Aiden and crew ๐ - Posted by: Rockie Kearney (Friend) on: Nov 02, 2019
