He later became its grand knight through his tireless work in the community. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6547192\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Lawrence's colleagues greatly admire him. They describe him as a man with an indomitable spirit who is not afraid to roll up his sleeves to help the people in our community.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6547193\" data-originallang=\"fr\">For example, every year, Lawrence recruits volunteers and distributes Christmas hampers to those in need. Lawrence is also involved in politics in my region and campaigns tirelessly for the rights of our veterans.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6547194\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I sincerely thank this man who makes a real difference in the lives of residents of Brome\u2014Missisquoi, particularly during the pandemic.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6547195\" data-originallang=\"en\">From everybody in our community and from the bottom of my heart, we thank Lawrence for his hard work and sacrifice.</p>",
