I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Larry. I went to school with him and he hunted with my ex-husband, (Donnie Green). I remember one time he took Jennifer and Donnie took our daughter Shannon for a week-end hunting trip. The guys came back and said it was fun, but the girls did not know when to keep guiet, and they were running the deer away. Not a good week-end for hunting. Jennifer, your father was a GEM of a guy. My condolences go out to the entire family. Love, Joanne Davis (Newark Ohio)

My thoughts and love are with you at this time. Larry and I were good friends in high school and I absolutely adored his Mom who was so kind to me. I also had the pleasure of friendship with Lee as as well. Please know my heart breaks over the loss of a man who was too young to be gone from this world.
