To Shelby and family, sorry for your loss. I grew up with Larry and went to school with him and Sally. Losing grandmothers in the same year is hard. Family prevails.

Am so sad to hear of the passing of my dear friend of about 64 years. We spent many days together when we were growing up and we never lost touch in all these years. Sally and Larry were godparents for our son and over the years we shared so many precious memories. I love you, my friend. RIP. Now you and Larry can be together again.
