The Davis Cos. executive Larry Lenrow has died suddenly. He was 64, according to an obituary published in the Boston Globe. A cause of death was not listed.

Lenrow, a Duxbury resident, was managing director for property management and operations at The Davis Cos., where directed the management of the company’s assets and handled administrative matters. Lenrow was also involved with the Building Owners and Managers Association of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board, where he taught courses on asset management, real estate finance and business ethics, among other topics.

Lenrow got his start in the late 1970s as a real estate specialist at Price Waterhouse Coopers, according to his biography on The Davis Cos. website. For much of the 1980s, he was head of asset management for Legatt McCall Properties. Before joining The Davis Cos. in 1999, he founded Compass Management and Leasing, where he grew the firm’s New England and New York portfolio to a combined 15 million square feet and oversaw the redevelopment of the Bank of Boston’s 871,000-square-foot headquarters.

Several industry figures had posted tributes on Lenrow’s online obituary as of mid-morning Monday.

“Larry was someone I looked up to. He was a friend, a leader, and a mentor to so many of us in the property management field,” Newmark Knight Frank’s Patrick Glynn wrote. “He will be missed by all in the Boma Boston community. My deepest sympathy to the Lenrow family.”

Others described him as a man with “a heart the size of Texas” and “a daily inspiration to me and others.”

In his private life, Lenrow was a member of the Duxbury Finance Committee, wrote poetry and played the harp, according to his obituary. A celebration of Lenrow’s life will be held at a later date.
