Lawrence ‘Bubba’ Workman

July 1, 1930 -- Oct. 24, 2024

Lawrence Wayne “Bubba” Workman, 94, peacefully entered eternal rest on Thursday, Oct. 24, 2024. His family warmly invites friends and loved ones to a visitation from 6-8 p.m. Nov. 3, 2024, at Holt & Holt Funeral Home in Boerne, Texas.

A celebration of his life will be held at 10 a.m. Nov. 4, 2024, at First Baptist Church Boerne, followed by his interment at Sunset Memorial Park in San Antonio that afternoon. Born on July 1, 1930, in San Antonio to Rudolph F. Workman and Era May (Hicks) Workman, Lawrence led a life marked by devotion and service.

A proud graduate of Burbank High School, he went on to join the Texas Air National Guard, courageously serving in the Korean War. Over his distinguished 41-year military career, Lawrence earned numerous medals and commendations, reflecting his dedication to his country.

Lawrence, known for his unwavering faith, was baptized Feb. 26, 1941. He served as a deacon at his church, consistently active in ministry and a beloved presence in his faith community.

Beyond his service, Lawrence was a dedicated family man — a loving husband, cherished father, proud “PawPaw” and doting great-grandfather.

Lawrence is survived by his devoted wife of 72 years, Mona Carol Workman, and their six children: Karen W. Bonham of Waco, Texas; Kim and Ernie Bell of Bertram, Texas; Kip and Julie Workman of La Vernia, Texas; Kody and Lana Workman of Thornton, Colorado; Kevin and Valerie Workman of Boerne; and Kelly Workman of Boerne; and foster son, ret. Col. Dr. James Henry Wright.

He also leaves behind nine grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren who lovingly carry on his legacy. Lawrence was preceded in death by his parents and two sisters.

In honor of Lawrence’s memory, the family kindly requests donations be made to Grace House, 7404 West US 90, Bldg. 20, San Antonio, Texas 78227, or a charity of your choice in lieu of flowers.
