About Lawrence E. Daley

Lawrence E. "Larry" Daley was born 20 October 1923 in Pittsburgh, Alleghany County, Pennsylvania, the son of Lawrence Daley (1901-1978) and Thelma Gurnea (b. 1901). Larry was married four times; first on 1 November 1946 [ Washington, D.C., U.S., Marriage Records, 1810-1953] to Laura Theresa Nittman, which resulted in two children, a daughter Cynthia Carol Daley [born 8 February 1953] and a son Bruce L. Daley [born 9 July 1959]; and ended in divorce sometime afterwards and his ex-wife Theresa prevented Larry from spending much time with his children until later years, which he always regretted. Larry married second, to Frances Mae "Fran" Borden on 10 November 1973 [California Marriage Index, 1960-1985] in Los Angeles County, California. This marriage ended in divorce shortly thereafter in August 1974. Afterwards he married Patricia S. Vanhook on two occasions: first, on 4 September 1976 in El Dorado County, California [California, U.S., Marriage Index, 1960-1985], and second on 20 June 1980 in Clark County, Nevada. [Nevada, U.S., Marriage Index, 1956-2005].

Larry Daley served his country and enlisted in the United States Army on 23 May 1944, and served in the United States Army Air Forces, which is the direct predecessor of the United States Air Force, as a fighter pilot, in World War II. He flew many missions including one providing air support for a bomber squadron in Okinawa. He was discharged on 19 September 1947 after the conclusion of the war. [U.S., Department of Veterans Affairs BIRLS Death File, 1850-2010]. In 1950, Larry applied for World War II additional compensation for his military service and he was granted an additional $440 for his service. [Pennsylvania, U.S., Veteran Compensation Application Files, WWII, 1950-1966]

Larry worked in the Aerospace Industry for many years, spending much of career with the Lockheed Missile and Space Division in Canoga Park, California. He was a Project Manager and Manager of System Checkout Equipment in the mid-1960's. Larry had a heart attack suddenly while playing a round of golf, passing away before many of his life-long Army Air Force friends on 29 April 1990. One of his good friends and co-workers at Lockheed Missile and Space Division was Elwood C. "Bud" Veregge (1922-2013).
