Outside of work, Lawson had a passion for adventure. He enjoyed traveling to 48 states, exploring new places with his beloved wife, Mary Ann Jones Mason by his side. They spent countless hours camping and fishing together, he loved to go hunting and fishing. He was always searching for the perfect spot where they could relish nature's beauty. His adventurous spirit inspired those around him to embrace life's journeys with enthusiasm and an open heart.

Lawson was also a devoted father to his son, Jeff Mason and daughter, Paula Towns and her husband, Buddy. He nurtured their dreams and instilled in them the values of love, resilience, and hard work. As a grandfather to Cristin Barrios and her husband, Brent, Justin Calhoun, Drew Towns, Valerie Mason, Garret Towns and his wife, Carla, and Spencer Towns; great grandchildren, Ethan, Brice, Cohyn, Ava, and Roman.
