Dear Cousins, I was so shocked and saddened to hear of the loss of your Dad...he, along with your mom, was a very special person, leaving a big impression on everyone he met. I know he will be greatly missed, but I'm SURE that he's up there dancing with Diane! They did EVERYTHING together, didn't they? Much Love, Donna

Larry will be sadly missed on pier 2. He always had a smile on his face and joy in his heart. We only got to know him better this year but enjoyed every minute of it. He would give you the shirt off his back. He was a wonderful man. God bless your whole family.

To all of the Pernnick family,
We were so saddened to hear of your father's passing. We have all lost a treasured friend and good man. He was always there for all of us with a broad smile, words of wisdom and a helping hand. Our two fondest memories of your father, which speak to his character,were the time he jumped into out engine room to fix our impeller when we broke down on the Frost Crawland how he always walked up and down the dock holding your Mom's hand. They were both special to us and have and will continue to be missed. Together again, they can continue their never-ending love for each other in the most peaceful and serene place they can be. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
