My heart goes out to the Young family. Larry was a truly great man, no a super spectacular man, a powerhouse of determination and devotion. Having started the same year, I got to watch this man in action. It is an honor to have worked with him all these years. I will miss him forever. Rest in Peace Larry.

Larry will be greatly missed by so many people, he was an amazing hard working man and always ready with a warm greeting. He was so dedicated to VCF he would answer his cell even when he was out of state or even out of the country on vacation. I pray for the peace and comfort for the Young family

I am mourning the loss of this great man. I had the priviledge of working with Larry for more than seven years. He was a very kind gentlemen, and fiercly loyal to his friends, his coworkers, but most especially, his family. His face lit up when he spoke about his wife, kids and grandkids. He will be greatly missed and my thoughts are with Larry's family at this difficult time.

To Mrs. Young and Family,

Your Larry was a true gentleman and an honorable man. I was blessed to know the man during a difficult period in my life and Larry was very kind to me and my family. I worked with Larry in the Middletown store for only a short time, but as you well know, he was a larger then life character who was not someone easily forgotten. I will always cherish the genuine sage advice given and hope that your memories of Larry help you through the hurt of his passing. Larry Young was most sincerely one of the good ones that we need more of in this thing we call life. My best to you and yours.
