Ronald John Lauritzson

of Conway, AR

May 22, 1938 - January 11, 2015

John, 76 of Conway, Ar went home to be with his eternal father in the early morning hours on 11th at his home. He is survived by his wife Julia Ann (Rappold) of 44 years, his daughter Susan (Wayne) Burgess, son Jonathan (Rebekah) Lauritzson, grandchildren Brett Burgess, Justin Burgess, Jonathan Lauritzson, Michael Lauritzson, Andrew Lauritzson, four sisters Janice Noe, Marie Taylor, Ruthann Carey and Nancy Larson, one brother Tom Shipman and many nieces and nephews and friends. He is proceeded in death by his parents Evelyn and Walter Lauritzson and father in law TJ Rappold. John retired in 2000, after 28 years of service at Fridgidaire (Carrier/Universal Nolan). In his retired years, John enjoyed taking care of the animals and keeping a fire going in the house. John loved fishing at the creek and helping others who needed a helping hand. He was a faithful member of St. Joseph Catholic Church in Conway. He was a volunteer at the food pantry at Central Baptist Church and attended Sunday morning services there as well. He also attended Sunday school classes and services at Bible Baptist Church with his wife. One of his favorite sayings is ''God loves you and so do I,'' he will be missed. Rest in peace Papa John! We love you! In lieu of flowers please make donations to Central Baptist Food Pantry and Bible Baptist Church Building Fund, both in Conway.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 1:00 pm Wednesday, January 14, 2015 at St. Joseph Catholic Church with Father Robert Cigainero officiating. Visitation will be held from 6:00pm to 8:00pm Tuesday, January 13, 2015 at Roller-McNutt Funeral Home in Conway.

Susan,

I am so very sorry for your loss. It has been a very long time since I have seen your family, but I have fond memories of your family from grade school when we used to hang out together. Your dad was such a nice man and a good one. I pray for peace and comfort for you and your family during this most difficult time.

God bless,
