My thoughts echo those of Al D. Time spent with Larry at SLU was special. He was a good friend and my world has dimmed with his passing.

I just received my St Lawrence magazine and read about Larry's passing. What a shock. Although we didn't have much contact after SLU I thought of him often.
He was such a good friend during those years. I always hoped that we would get together again.

It's Saint Patrick's Day evening, and I just learned of Larry's passing from an old Oswego friend. That seems somehow appropriate. I've known Larry since St. Lawrence, and he unfailingly embodied the finest attributes of the Irish. In memory, he'll always be the Golden Boy.

I was so very sorry to hear of Larry's death. My prayers are with his brothers, family and friends who will surely miss him.

I just returned from S. America and was shocked by this sad news. Larry and I grew up together in Oswego NY. We first met in kindegarten at St. Paul's Academy and remained friends through high school at Oswego Catholic High. Larry was a terrific basketball player in high school and was such a class act even as a young man. Although our careers took different paths we met on the north shore from time to time. His sudden passing made me so mindful of my own mortality. On behalf of the entire Zaryski family, most of whom still live in Oswego, I offer our deepest sympathy to Larry's family and friends.

I was saddened to hear of Larry's untimely passing, and I will always remember his starring days with the OCHS Crusaders, as well as his tutelage when I was first admitted to the local bar. He will be long remembered in the annals of Oswego sports and by the community in general. My condolences to his brother, Jack and Jim--John T. Sullivan Jr.(Albany)

I met and knew Larry while working for Cummings Properties in Beverly. He was always smiling, very kind and extremely warm when strolling through the complex. I was very saddened to hear about his passing. It isn't very often that one remembers tenants in a large building but Larry was one of them to be remembered. My thoughts and prayers to family, friends and colleagues. He will be missed.

I've had the pleasure of being one of Larry's friends in recent years. After a poor start, a mending period, I can not believe he is no longer with us. I'll think of Larry often when skiing, golfing, and each and every Patriots game this year! I plan to see Bruce in Aspen soon to celebrate our time with Larry.
