Lawrence P. Chubet

Lawrence “Larry” Paul Chubet died on July 21, 2015, at Bayleigh Chase in Easton. He was 88. Born March 19, 1927, in Norwood, MA, to John Joseph Chubet and Mary Evelyn Clem, Larry was one of eight children (John Jr., Alice, Elinor, Edward, Marion, Robert, and Barbara). Larry enlisted in the Navy during WWII where he served until honorably discharged in 1946. He then headed to Syracuse University and enjoyed a typical college life and graduated in 1951 with a B.S. in Industrial Engineering. He started work immediately after graduation for Armstrong World Industries in Lancaster, PA. He would go on to complete 38 years with Armstrong, traveling to and sometimes living in places like New Orleans, Dallas, Detroit, Lancaster, Philadelphia, Europe and Japan. During his time in Philadelphia he met and married Isabelle Dorothy Logan, and proceeded to have and raise four children (Teresa, Matthew, Marcella and Mark). When the lucky dog retired in 1989, he and Isabelle downsized to a townhouse just outside of Philadelphia where he volunteered at the church, played golf, and participated in the weekly MOLE (Men of Leisure) meetings. In 1996, they moved to the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay for a true life of leisure participating in the activities they loved most, like singing in the church, volunteering at the Maritime Museum, fishing, gardening, grilling and socializing. During his entire life, Larry shared his beautiful tenor voice with everyone by singing in local choruses, Barbershop quartets and the Berkshires summer chorus. He was an active and beloved member of the Catholic Church. He is survived by his wife, Isabelle (Easton, MD); daughters, Teresa (Sandwich, MA) and Marcella (Silver Spring, MD); son, Mark (Salisbury, MD); grandsons, Jake (Silver Spring, MD), Brad (Waycross, GA) and great-granddaughter, Robin (Waycross, GA).
