Lawrence “Larry” Jaques, 69, of Bear Creek Township, died Saturday July 25th at Oakwood Terrace, Moosic. He is survived by his wife, Lisa Murray Jaques.

Born in Long Island, NY, son of the late Robert and Florence Kuskowski Jaques, Sr., he received his Bachelor’s Degree from the Pennsylvania State University.  Prior to his retirement, Larry was a partner in a Medicare Sales business with his wife, although he never saw it as a job.  He loved his customers and enjoyed sitting down with each one of them and catching up on their lives.  He had previously owned and operated Gourmet Bread in Clarks Summit and Carbondale.  Larry was an avid New York Yankees fan.  Besides his family, his greatest love was his four fur babies.
