Mary & Family--My thoughts and memories are with you today; Larry & I were classmates & friends K-12; he was the quiet member of a boisterous family. Larry never had a harsh word for anyone, and no one ever had a harsh word about him. A good person who will be missed by anyone who knew him.

Mary and family,
I just heard of Larry's passing.
Larry was not only tall in stature, but also in his ability to help others not matter what.
He will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with Larry & his family. I worked with Larry for many years. Everytime I saw him he had a smile on his face and a kind word - no matter how his day was going. His relaxed, no stress attitude was something most of us could only wish to have. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Dear Mike and Family:
I was saddened to hear of your loss. Larry was such a great person and will be truly missed. His general laid back attitude and quirkiness made him a true pleasure to work with. He could make a 12 HR run breeze by like nothing. I am very sorry for your loss.
