Lawrence J. Huber, 75, a Pearl Harbor survivor and retired Bell Atlantic manager, died Friday of heart failure in Riddle Memorial Hospital.
Mr. Huber, of Media, Pa., formerly of Richardson Park, Del., New Castle, Del., Fairfax, Del., and Newport, Del., was a gun captain on the battleship USS Tennessee at Pearl Harbor when the Japanese attacked. He raced from his bunk to his turret, only to be badly wounded by a bomb that hit a neighboring compartment. The blast scorched his skin and burned off his hair; shrapnel pierced an arm. He received the Purple Heart. After recovering, he returned to the ship until taking over a Navy harbor tug, also in the Pacific. After the war, he and his wife settled in Wilmington.
He was motor vehicle supervisor for Diamond State Telephone Co., and in the early 1960s, served on the Richardson Park School Board and was a PTA president. He was a deacon, Sunday school teacher, and choir member at Chichester Baptist Church, and a founding member of Bethany Baptist Church, Newport.
His wife, Marian \{Lung\} Huber, died in 1980.
