Br. Richard LaRose, a native of Lawrence MA and a '58 graduate
of central Catholic High School entered the Marist Brothers'
Novitiate the September after his graduation. He went on to
earn a Doctorate in Chemistry and taught in various Marist

where he taught. Over the 53 years he
was a Brother, he influenced countless
lives, and, evidently, God saw that it
wa his time to "come home."
