I am many of the "worker bees" that worked with Larry at Pacfic Northwest Bell and "other companies".This I can tell you that it was never a dull moment working with and around him. It was very hard to keep up with his verbal messages and some days you didn't want to deel with them. Those were the good and fun times when we took care of each other.
Thanks for the good times and memories, Larry.
