Larson Day Obituary

SAN ANGELO Larson Hunter Day, 24, passed away Friday evening in Lubbock, Texas. Born on Nov. 13, 1987, to Gordy and Angela Day in San Angelo, Larson had a wonderful life and seemed to have the best of everything. He loved to golf and ski anytime he had the chance. There were not many things that Larson had not accomplished. Among his greatest achievements, Larson particularly enjoyed flying his plane that was kept in Lubbock. He had been skydiving, driven a racecar at the Texas Motor Speedway and had his scuba certification all by his early 20s. He had many friends, most of whom he had known since his childhood at Crockett Elementary School. From Crockett, to Glenn, to Central High School, his friends were with him as he grew up. Larson went on to attend Texas Tech University in 2006, where he majored in economics and history and became a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. Anyone could tell you he had the time of his life in Lubbock. Larson was soon joined at Tech by his two sisters, Annalisa and Lorelei. Living only a street away from them, Larson was always more than happy to be there for anything the girls needed. Those who were blessed to know him can all say that Larson's presence lit up whatever room he was in. It was an honor, privilege and a downright good time to know Larson Day. Larson is survived by his parents, Gordy and Angela; his sisters, Annalisa and Lorelei; his uncle, Graeme Day; grandparents Homer and Betty Nabors; uncle and aunt Tim and Christie Nabors; cousins Dustin, Stephanie, Laura and Leslie Nabors; his girlfriend, Julie Green; and his two Labrador Retrievers, Layla and June Day. Larson's love for all those he knew will never be forgotten and his intellect, humor and ambitions will live on forever through his friends and family. Donations may be made to the West Texas Boys Ranch, 10223 Boys Ranch Road, San Angelo, TX 76904; or a charity of choice. Visitation will be from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Friday, Oct. 12, at Johnson's Funeral Home and service will be at 10 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 13, at First Presbyterian Church in San Angelo. Interment will follow in Lawnhaven Memorial Gardens. Family and Friends may sign an online register book at johnsons-funeralhome.com.

Larson was a great friend of mine and I will always remember him as an honest and good person that always had a smile on his face no matter where he was. I will never forget the time I flew with Larson and his Co-pilot to Midland for Lunch so he could get some training hours in, at times I will not admit I was nervous but Larson had an unbelievable calm sense to him during the flight and needless to say our takeoff and landing were both very smooth, not to mention we had a cross-wind coming into Midland at about 80 miles an hour, even under these severe circumstances for a pilot-in-training he remained extremely calm under pressure and took us right in there and only needed very minimal assistance from the Co-Pilot. I will always remember that about him.... A genuine sense of calm and truly a great friend that I will never forget. Larson I will miss you more than you know man.
