Larry was a great friend and coworker. The Aussie had the funniest laugh and keen sense of humor. Always considered one of the top in his field of Pipefitter welder. He will be missed and behalf of the officers and members of local union520 we issue our heartfelt sympathy and condolences. Business manager Terry E. Peck.

Cathy and Family I was sorry to hear of your great loss of such a wonderful caring man. You are in my prayers.

Debbie, Cathy and Larry Lee: My mom called this morning to relay the sad news. I'm so sorry for your loss. I remember visiting your lovely Airville home and how everyone took their shoes off when they entered. Debbie, your dad was a handsome, striking man who was affectionate toward your mom, you, and your brothers. It impressed upon me in my youth how tall and tan and gracious and funny he was, and I liked that he spoke slowly and deliberately. That to me meant that he was a smart and caring dad. His smile looked like a movie's star's smile; I remember the beauty mark on his cheek. Little things by which to remember him. I'm sad that you lost him. Hugs to you all. Fondly, Kathy Lane

Cathy and Family, I'm deeply saddened to hear of Larry's passing. Larry was the nicest person that I've ever met!, Always a big smile and a kind word. We will all meet again someday in the Lord's house. Larry will be greatly missed by everyone that knew him. One terrific guy, what else can I say? R.I.P. Larry. My condolences to Cathy and the family.
