Larry, and Denise, were good friends for many years. We live at a distance now and don't keep up as often as we should, but today I found a comment that Larry had passed on. Scott and I have only the best memories of good times, good fun with the whole family. Denise and family, you have the sympathy of Scott and I. Larry was such a good man and father. We all were very fortunate to have known him....Scott and Audrey Stanaland
