Thinking of you, Alisa, and keeping you close in my heart and in my prayers. I used to enjoy "visiting" with Larry when we were both in Walmart. We always talked when we saw each other! He was such a sweet person.

Alisa, please know that you and your family are in my prayers. I'll miss chatting and trading sports memorabilia with Larry at your shop, yet, will always cherish the memory of his sweet, kind nature. May you find comfort in his peace and your strong faith. God is always with you...
