Not sure what to say?

What an inspirational man Larry was. He was my mentor when I 1st began my career in drafting at “Fram” while still in high school. Always laughing, joking, and teaching. Adam, my 1st child, born several years later, had barely started standing on his own when I brought him to the office one day and stood him up at my drafting table. Larry, at the next table, put his arms out and called out for him to walk to him. He took his 1st steps that day right to Larry! A precious memory I am...

Larry was a good neighbor and a great guy. I know he’ll be missed by all. My thoughts, prayers, and condolences to the family.

Barbara, Anthony and Kathleen,
Sorry to hear about the Passing of Larry. I remember Bowling with Him at Al's Central Avenue Lanes. Every time I see a Volkswagen Beetle, I think of him and how much he loved that car.

Remembering a fun-loving grandfather, welcoming father-in-law, and a charming Irish man with a devilish glint in his eye. May we all be so lucky has to have a Larry in our lives.

He is one of the finest examples of how to be a man. If you knew him, at all, you're better off if you learned from his examples. I know I am. Thank you Larry.

Larry was one of the kindest gentleman during the years I was the nurse at Fram/Allied Signal. He always had a smile on his face and was liked by all. Deepest sympathy to his family and friends.
