I knew Larry all my life and the last 60 years he was my Brother-in-Law. Although we only see him at Christmas because they lived in Maryland. We always had a great time. When we moved to Las Vegas over 30 years ago we only seen him a few time, however, we did talk on the phone. He came to Las Vegas a couple of times and I went to Maryland a couple of times. He always called me Pudes, not sure how I got that name but I did. He will always be remembered and in my prayers.

It was a little over 20 years ago that I met Mr. Larry, though I was too young to remember the first time. It seemed like every time I saw him he would be wearing a suit, which as a child I thought was very cool. Although I did not see him very often, Mr. Larry was always a gentleman and treated my family and I like his own. Thank you and God Bless.

Grandpa was the first one in the family to meet me when Janet brought me home from the first time. I remember the day well. He took us out for breakfast after picking us up from the airport that morning. From that moment forward he never treated me like a stranger. If anything he always treated me like I was his grandson. He always picked with me about how he was going to turn me into a Ravens fan. So this past Christmas I made him smile when I purchased and put on my new Ravens hat. His loss is going to be hard on everyone's life that he touched. No matter how bad he or you felt he could make you smile. I just want to say thank you to him for his beautiful granddaughter that I call my wife along with the rest of my in - laws that I am proud to call my family! You may not be with us physically anymore but you are here with us spiritually and emotionally and that will never pass away!
