I would like to express my sincere condolences to the family. May you find some comfort in this thought found in Isaiah 61: 1,2 that says in part "He sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, To comfort all who mourn,"

My sincere condolences to all family members. Larry and I were friends and neighbors since Adobe Acres Elementary School. Larry I will always remember all the fun and laughs we had hanging out together in the neighborhood from little league, elementary school, Jr. High, High School, and in the men's softball team you and Jerry organized. That was the most fun I ever had playing softball! When we meet again, lets get a team together.

My sincere condolences and prayers go out to Larry's family and friends. I never met someone so understanding and kind hearted as Larry. He hired me about 2 years ago here at Wagner Mechanical. From knowing someone for such a short period of time I felt like I've known him for years! He shared such wise, uplifting words with me and helped me through some of my hardest days. He taught me so much from helping me become a better worker to just simply making me a better person in general. He'd always sneak me apple pies from McDonalds, which I'm going to miss that the most. I looked up to him, pretty much as a second father. He always knew how to make anyone smile and had the best stories to tell that would make you laugh for hours. He definitely had a special place in my heart and at this time my heart does feel like there is a piece missing but I know he is in a better place and at rest. I love you, Larry. You will forever be in my heart. Never, ever, will I EVER forget you.

My prayers and condolences to all of Larry's family and friends. I met Larry when I started working at Wagner the first time about 5 years ago. I know I was on Larry's good side because I was able to come back after being laid off and again after a very extended maternity leave. In the short time that I have known him, I saw what a caring and loving person he was to those who were closest to him, he had such a big heart and and smile. He was a fair and kind boss and treated people with respect even if he was not happy with something. I loved hearing his stories. I sure am going to miss him.
