As President of the First National Bank at Pittsburgh, he
lived to see it invested with international renown, taking its
place among the great Banks of the world. A work so extensive
 and so monumental, could only have been wrought by
one who was able to inspire others. His democratic spirit
made itself felt far and wide throughout the entire organization
 and his personality and comradeship inspired his army of
employees to give the Bank its best. The breadth of this
conception reveals the nature of a mind which enriched itself
through contact with all that is best in human endeavor.
His kindliness and affections were deep and permanent.

WE, his colleagues of the Board of Directors of the First
National Bank at Pittsburgh, knew, as few others could, his
sincerity of purpose and we revere his memory.
The foregoing Resolution having been adopted, it was
further resolved that a copy be transmitted to the family of
Mr. Lawrence E. Sands with the deep sympathy of all the
members of this Board.
