FLASH FLASH
The Los Angeles County Coroner’s office has confirmed that Dr. Lawrence
Raymond Fleischer passed away yesterday at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Burbank,
California yesterday at 7:25 pm Pacific Time, cause of death listed as “full
arrest”.
No autopsy was necessary because it was from natural causes. Dr. Fleischer had suddenly
collapsed while waiting to be picked up at the Burbank Airport and suffered
small cuts on the chin and jaw as a result of the fall. He had recently
celebrated his 64th birthday on October 11, 2009
Please see Ella Mae Lentz’s vlog, praising Larry as a man of integrity. He
had just given the closing address at the ASLTA conference in Arizona and
was in good spirits, then took the airplane flight home to California. Here

greatly missed. He’s former professor at Gallaudet University.
