History
Hello LAPL members,
Two people who were close to the league have passed recently. Rod Lansing passed away a few weeks ago and John Cochran's mother just passed. The email below was sent by the family of John Cochran. All of us knew how much he loved his mother.
"Our mom, Margaret, passed away on Saturday, January 4. We were fortunate to have celebrated a beautiful Thanksgiving and Christmas with her. She became ill after Christmas and we had many loved ones with her in the final moments. I find comfort in knowing she will be cared for by John.
Please notify John's friends, as she would want them to know how much she cared for them. Your continued prayers and thoughts are appreciated. The services will be as follows:
Fri 1/10 7 PM Rosary at Cabot & Sons in Pasadena, 27 Chestnut Street, Pasadena 91103, 626-793-7159
Sat 1/11 11 AM Mass at Holy Redeemer Church in Montrose, 2411 Montrose Avenue, Montrose 91010
Wishing each of a you a safe and prosperous new year.
Thank you. Emily, Errol, Steve and Liz (family of John Cochran)"

Dear members of LAPL:
With great sadness, I wanted to let the pool league know of the passing of Lee Chavra who was a great friend and member of the pool league for many years. Our hearts and prayers go out to Lee and all of his family members.
Lee Petrovitch, a founder and eighth President of our League passed away on Sunday, April 9.
Lee had been chronically ill for some years and suffered massive organ failure. He was 61 years of age.
According to Dan Lawson, his significant partner for the past three years, and a close friend for 30, there will be some form of Beer Bust party to celebrate his life. They are discussing arrangements for either Detour, Gauntlet or Rawhide. Details are to follow when known.
There will be no funeral in accordance with Lee's wishes. Anyone wishing to send condolences can contact Bill Hoover of Jeff Hersh for details.
It is with deep regret that I want to let the members and friends of the LAPL know that Bill Holland passed away early this morning. Bill was the owner of Trunks Bar and a very generous friend to all including supporting our league as both a long time sponsor and financial supporter.
If you would like to pay your respects, there will be 2 services both held in Palm Springs at the Weifels Mortuary / 690 Vella Rd / P.S. The first service is this Thursday from 1-4 pm and the second service will be held at the same place on Saturday from 3-6 pm.
