Laslett family history

Richard and Susan Lasslett of New Gisborne

Richard James Bernard Lasslett was born on 23 September 1955 at Moreland the third child of William James Lasslett and Marie Joan Lasslett née Coverdale (page 208).

His mother told me that Ric worked in Real Estate until a few years ago when he joined his father's business, Lasslett Rubber Pty Limited, and as a Director is now taking perhaps the major role in the business.

Marie also said that Ric has an excellent singing voice, being classically trained, but unfortunately he has let his lessons lapse due to pressure of business.

Ric is married to Susan Elizabeth Foleta and they live in Farrell Street, New Gisborne.

Susan is a recognised local artist who specialises in landscapes. I have seen some of her paintings hanging in her parents-in-law's house and they are quite beautiful.
