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 exten- 
sive 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 organiza- 
tion 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.
