It's been one year since you left us all. Thank you again for all that you have done for not only me but for my family and especially my ma. We love you very deeply and the pain is still here. Larry, you are gone, but definitely not forgotten. You still are alive in my heart and many others. Every time I pass a golf course and a lake you can fish at I think of all the great times we had together. Love your son,
Nick

My father was such a blessing to everyone he met; he truly loved getting to know people and was a guinuine friend. I loved our conversations about his work and mine... We would share stories and laugh so much about the everyday situations we would experience! He always made me feel so special and I miss him every day. I'm am so sad that my daughter will not get the chance to meet him or know how fun he was, but I will continue to share stories about how wonderful he was..... The holidays are here and I am thinking of memories past..... I love and miss you .......Merry Christmas Dad

I was broken hearted when I heard the news of Larry's passing today. Our weekend Jesuit retreat in September will never be the same without him. He made everyone feel so welcome. Man I'm going to miss seeing his friendly face.

I will be missing my friend and confidant. The sound of his voice is still ringing in my ears. I will continue to share stories about his life that will help keep him alive. I know he is still with us in spirit. that is going to be the hardest thing for me to embrace; missing his physical presence.

Larry always had a smile on his face and was a very generous spirit. He was very proud of his family and spoke highly of them. Larry treated my husband and myself with so much kindness and generosity, often inviting us into his home and to spend time with him and his family, perhaps knowing that we don't have any of our own family in the area. We will never forget his smile and generous spirit, and will miss him greatly.
