Dolfo, Larry: April 12, 1937 - March 31, 2019. It is with great sadness we announce the death of Larry Dolfo, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He was a loving husband, father and grandfather and will be greatly missed.

Larry moved to Penticton in 1962 and taught math at McNicoll Park Jr. High and Pen. High. He retired in 1993. Larry highly valued family and friends. There was always laughter in the room when Larry was there. He had a great sense of humour and could poke fun at anyone.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the Heart Center at St. Paul's Hospital where Larry received excellent care (https://helpstpauls.com/).

When I was small, Larry was huge. And loud. And he roared sometimes. But he wasn't scary.

When I was a young Christian and barely an adult, Larry and Norma became the Christian parents I needed, praying for me and helping me make big decisions.

When my own kids were small, Larry was not as loud and not as huge. He teasingly complained, not quite as loudly, that Norma had him on a diet. (Thank you, Norma!)

And in the last few years, Larry became downright quiet. But it wasn't a new Larry. It was the same Larry who could be loud and roar sometimes without scaring small children. Because behind the roars and teases his love was always clear.

I thank God for the blessing of knowing and loving Larry.
