Judy, Penni and Gary,
I could not have been more shocked than when I heard you, Judy, say those five words...."Carolyn, Larry died last night." Judy, I thought you were going to say he was much better today and nothing could come out except, "NOOO!" But when you said he had come to the LORD the weekend before I was sooo happy for you... and him! Both Larry and our LORD... there was a BIG celebration in heaven... there always is when another one comes "home"
I wish I could have been there for you and with you.
I love you all.... each and every one of you... even tho I don't know Gary very well, I still love him because he is of you, Judy, and I love you dearly.
I will see you this Summer sometime or early Fall.
Count on it! Perhaps Penni and Gary could join us for lunch or supper this time!
Love and many blessings...to a TRUE blessing!
Carolyn, your cousin

Dear Judy,Penny and Gary,
We were sorry to hear about your loss. WE have some great memories of Larry, including when you both showed up in our hotel room on our wedding night. Larry was a good friend, during basic training when things got tough, we were always there for each other. Even though, we have not kept in contact, we will always consider him a good friend.
God Bless you

It was always good to have Welsh Larry on our posse. He has been (and will be) missed. Larry lived the Cowboy Way. May fond memories sustain you in your time of grief. Yee Haw and Little Mama

Judy, Penni and Gary,
I can not tell you how shocked and saddened we are regarding Larry's passing. We have always loved having you as our neighbors, and only regret that we didn't know Larry was sick, so we could have been of some help this winter. Owen will truly miss his early morning bus stop talks with Larry and I will miss knowing someone like him is only a shout away. If there is anything we can do for you-please let us know. May the peace and comfort of Jesus be with all of you and Larry too.
Sincerely, Rose Ann and Herb and Kids
