One of my sweetest cousins. Larry was always a favorite of mine. He loved to tease me and I enjoyed it. He was a special soul who touched many lives. Even though it has been several years since I had seen him, he was always in my heart and thoughts. Sending love and prayers for his family and friends. Rest in God’s arms!

My beloved friend, Larry is gone. No longer will we be able to see him sitting there, standing there with his heart full of love always ready to be God's servant - working, helping, sharing, listening and making us laugh. I will miss him so much in fact I already do. He put the freon in my car air conditioner for me last year and we gave each other a hug. I knew I could trust him with anything. We shared our faith in God together. This is a huge loss for many people. My heart goes out to his grown children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Peace.

Thank you for being my grandfather. I will always remember long summer days spent on the trampoline, the pool, and at many bonfire with my family and cousins. Thank you for a wonderful childhood
