More detail on this person: Lawrence Jay "Larry" Sands was born November 19, 1942 in Pennsylvania and passed away in Salt Lake City, UT on April 23, 2018. After 10 years in the Military he built homes in Pierce County, Washington, and later owned his own advertising agency for over two decades. Since 2000 Larry had lived in the central highlands of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. He again became a builder and contractor for new homes and a remodeler of Mexican colonial-style homes with artisanal craftsmanship as he kept a crew gainfully employed for a decade. Larry loved Verde, his scotch drinking parrot who was with him for 30 years, his water aerobics group, his Monday morning coffee klatch group. He helped form the English-speaking Rotary Club and was instrumental in the formation and growth of the inter-denominational Community Church of San Miguel. Larry helped develop and administrate the San Miguel Walking & Shopping Guide. He acted as a marketing consultant for many charities, always sharing his expertise and empathy for "the cause." He is survived by son Jay and daughter Jenifer and his grandchildren, Taylor and Lucas Martin and Cameron Sands.
