\t\t\tLawrence \u2018Larry\u2019 Mullock \t\t<\/p>\n
\t\t\tOBITUARY\t\t<\/p>\n
Larry Mullock of Scranton died Friday, February 13, 2026 at Allied Services Skilled Nursing. He was the son of the late Luke and Mary (Bohan) Mullock.<\/p>\n
\nLarry was the first graduate from the Scranton Public School Distric\u2019ts Crippled Children\u2019s Program at Robert Morris School in 1964. This was the precursor to special education programs that are common today. He worked at Black Diamond Silk Mill, Jaunty Fabric Corporation, and the Lackawanna County Recycling center before retiring.<\/p>\n
\nHe was a fixture at Saint Paul\u2019s basketball programs and for many years presented a sportsmanship award named for him. He was an avid Braves fan from the time they were in Boston until he died. One of his happiest memories was meeting Hank Aaron and seeing him hit a home run against the Phillies.<\/p>\n
\nHis family would like to thank the staff at Allied Terrace Assisted Living for providing a loving home for Larry for almost 20 years. They would also like to thank the staff at Allied Skilled Nursing where he spent the last few months of his life.<\/p>\n
\nLarry is survived by sisters Mary Beth (Fred) Affeldt, Ellen (Jim) Vitaletti, Ann (Joseph) Ruddy; brother, Rick (Mary) Mullock; sisters-in-law, Rosemary Mullock and Ann Marie Mullock; 19 nieces and nephews; a multitude of great nieces and nephews; and several cousins.<\/p>\n
\nHe was preceded in death by brothers, Paul and Michael; and niece and nephew, Maureen and Patrick.<\/p>\n
\nA Mass of Christian Burial is scheduled for Saturday at 10:00AM in St Paul\u2019s Church, 1500 Penn Ave. Family and friends may call on Friday from 5-7:00PM at McGoff Hughes Funeral Home, 1401 Capouse Ave., Scranton.<\/p>\n
\nIn lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Larry\u2019s memory to St Joseph\u2019s Center, 2010 Adams Avenue, Scranton, PA 18509.<\/p>\n
