So often,words cannot express the true thoughts one has of an individual. In Larry's case,just a few words would be: Friend,Intelligent,Kind,Considerate,Mechanical. I could go on and on.I surely miss our days at Pilot together,you made them a true pleasure. My deepest sympathy to all of Larry's family and friends.Although gone,,,,He will never,ever be forgotten!!!

To Marilyn and all the Family,

You are all so Blest to have had Larry in your life for so long. What a great role model to have, he was such a kind, generous and loving man to everyone he knew, and he never met a stranger.
He was truly a blessing in all our lives and we all have special memories of him that we can always treasure.
The Tribute to him last night was wonderful and touching and would have made him so Proud.
You are a Wonderful family and we love you all.

God Bless You,

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

I remember interviewing Larry at Pilot Life and offering him a position to join our Sedgefield Family! Larry always had a smile no matter how hard the task or difficult the repair. He added so much positive influence for all of us. He was a true gentleman and wonderful person!

Memories are precious gifts
God gives to his own,
To help us thru this life
After loved ones have gone on.
May we treasure these memories
Deep within our hearts,
Til we meet with them again
Never more to part.
