Lawrence Nash, age 59. His wild ride of life came to an end on (April 14, 2025) at his home surrounded by his loved ones after his battle with ALS. He was born on April 4, 1966, in Louisville, KY, the son of the late Billy Nash and Pearl Hack Hinson.
Lawrence was a wild and beautiful soul that never met a stranger. He was a very hard worker and took extreme pride in his work. He was very creative, had beautiful penmanship, loved classic music and enjoyed working outdoors. He was a very proud father and was a big fan of all of his son’s vehicles and projects.
Lawrence was a landscaper, construction worker and laborer for many years; he had several hobbies, was known as a collector, and loved scrapping. Lawrence left a lasting impression anywhere he went.
He loved his family and friends dearly. He loved to make people laugh and he was a big giver. He always loved to carry around “goodies” to give to whoever he ran into. Every day was an adventure to Lawrence, as he’d always say he was “born to boogie.”
He is survived by his “woman” of 36 years, Patsy Foreman; his son, Lawrence “Bobo” Foreman (Amber) and Johnny “Booboo” Foreman (Sherry); brothers, Junie Nash (Missy) of Anneta, David Nash of Shrewsbury, Johnny Embrey (Peggy) and Jake Embrey; sisters, Bonnie Russell and Darlene Hagan; seven grandchildren, Ballie Bentkowski (Laydan), Beth Evans, Jameson Rhodes, Kendra Logsdon, Kallie Evans, Davy and Chey Foreman; and two very special great grandbabies Nyla May and Ny'mir Ladale. Several nieces and nephews, including his very special niece, "luckun baby" Jennifer Nash (Missy) and nephew, ‘bubbie ‘; Paul Anthony Nash (Rebecca), also survive.
Lawrence is also survived by several very special friends.
Other than his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother, Paul Edward Nash; Grandfather William Thomas (Bill) Nash and grandmother Priscilla Farris (Cilla) Nash.
