"Fats" and I grew up together on the East end of "Dub C" and he will always be remembered as MY FRIEND! I had the honor to help carry his casket out of his HOMEGOING service. RIP MY FRIEND!

I was a student at Earlham College 1973-1975 and knew Larry there. I am so sad to hear about this. I am with another Earlhamite tonight -- Anne McMullen -- in Olympia, WA, and we were reminiscing about him just prior to finding this announcement. We send his family our love.

My sincere condolences to Larry's family. Larry was a dear friend from Westtown School. He would have been pleased to know that my daughter attends his Alma Mater Earlham College in Indiana. Larry was fun, funny, really smart, a great athlete and a loving friend.
