Home in Chicago in 1886--coming to Estero with the Koreshan movement in

Laurie, as he was called by friends, grew up in the Unity. His life-long love
was music. When he reached his adult age, he left the Unity for Baltimore,
Maryland, also New York, to find his career in music. He had also learned the
printing trade at the Unity, which was his lively-hood. He was always close
to the Unity family, always coming home for long periods between jobs. In
later years he worked as a printer in Miami with the Graham brothers. He was
always in an orchestra.
In 1940 he moved home to the Koreshan Unity to work at the Guiding Star
Printing Shop. On November 12, 1947, he was elected president of the Koreshan
Unity. 1948 and until February 1949 he was editor of "The American Eagle." He
served as president until his death on August 5, 1960. He was buried in the
Koreshan cemetery.
Laurie had a warm, loving personality, witty, humorous--always had a joke to
tell. His love of music--loved driving long car trips. He loved to travel.
He had one trip abroad to Germany and Switzerland. He was of medium build,
sandy hair, clear blue-grey eyes, ruddy complexion. A very neat person in his
dress. His closest life-long friend was Claude J. Rahn--his brother-in-law.
Laurie always wore light summer suits for dress, blue-grey and his work
clothes were of tan twill, matching long sleeve shirt and pants.
NOTES:
Between 1915 and 1918 Laurie lived in New York City. In the archives
collection there are excerpts from letters that were written to him by members
of the Unity. Also included is Laurie's wallet which contains his drivers
license as well as a calling card and a business card for Claude Rahn. The
license is dated 1919 and there is a renewal dated June 6, 1929.

"On Saturday morning, October 31, the Unity received a telegram from Mr. Leroy
H. Bubbett, our representative in Winnetka Ill., to the effect that he would
arrive in Fort Myers that morning and for someone to meet him. We did, but it
was most evident that Leroy was not long for this world, for he arrived
completely exhausted and a very sick man indeed. The end came the following
Tuesday, November 3, at 3:30 p.m. Brother Roy, as he was familiarly known to
us, was one of the early pioneers of the Koreshan movement in Chicago, coming
into the home when a lad with his parents, Brother James and Sister Evelyn
Bubbett. He performed much valuable service in those early days and since,
and was ready at all times to champion the Cause of Koreshanity. He is
survived by his wife and daughter, who reside at Winnetka; a son at
Birmingham, Alabama, and his brother, Laurence Bubbett, of Estero. His son,
Victor Bubbett, arrived in Estero Thursday morning following his father's
demise, and left the next day for Winnetka."
