Mark LaRose (1944 – 2020)

Mr. LaRose was called to the bar in 1973, after completing law school at Dalhousie University in Halifax. He practiced in Welland since his call to the bar until his passing in February of 2020.

His practice focused on the areas of corporate, real estate, wills and estates.

He was involved in politics, sat on the Welland City Council and also ran for the Provincial Liberal Party. One of his great passions was coaching hockey. Mark was a coach for the Welland Minor Hockey Association and was most proud of all the teams he coached and the relationships he made and continued to hold with his assistant coaches, players and their parents. He was most recently given a shout out during the Hometown Hockey Broadcast in Welland in November 2019 for which he was incredibly honoured.

In addition to coaching hockey, Mark enjoyed carpentry and renovating homes with his son. He loved to cook and was also a member of Les Marmitons Niagara.

He was deeply committed to the firm of Flett Beccario since he joined in 2004 and will be greatly missed by all of us.
