We were deeply saddened when we learned that former Metro Rotarian Jim Lawrence had passed away in March 2020 from a brain tumor. Jim was a charter member of our Grand Prairie Metro Rotary Club and was instrumental in starting the Pumpkin Run along with Clyde DeLoach. Together, Jim, Clyde and Carolyn Wicker served and made sure the Pumpkin Run continued for many years. Jim continued to be a sponsor of the run until his death. Jim’s family knew how important the Pumpkin Run was to him. The family is now having his memorial service and has specifically asked that our Rotary club be notified for those that would like to attend. For those that would like to attend, information is below. For those Rotarians that did not know Jim, he was a perfect example of “Service Above Self.”
