I thought I would still have a while before I had to leave a comment like this for Larry. There are so many good times we have had with him and he was always like family to us. He was "Pops" to our kids and was always there to do whatever he could for or with our family. He is very much missed and will always hold a special place in our hearts. If there is anything we can do for you Cale or TJ please let us know. We love you Larry.

I can remember as a boy, seeing Larry at Thanksgiving and Christmas, wearing a cowboy hat and a smile . I thought he was the coolest person I'd ever met, I still think so. Larry, you will be greatly missed by many, thanks for the memories and your great service and sacrifice to our country. I hope you and Hilton are having a great time rabbit and bird hunting in Heaven!

So sorry for the family's sad loss. Larry was a nice man. I can remember between softball games, watching the men play, and Larry could SMACK a softball, over the fence. I hope all your memories help with your pain.
