Not sure what to say?

Mary and Laura,

I was both shocked and deeply chagrined to learn of Larry's untimely death. We hadn't spoke in many years but that didn't make my feelings for the man any less. He was always a vibrant person - a ray of hope in a darkened world when I first met him at major crimes in the US Attorney's office. I cooperated with him and the bureau on the Wilson trials and never felt like a second citizen because of my past association with Wilson - in fact - he treated me like any...

Mary & Laura,
I am deeply saddened to just discover Larry's passing. Not hearing from him for so long and fearing to email him of his health status, I googled only to find his obituary.
Larry & I met while he was at Dartmouth and needless to say, one of my favorite & memorable people in my life always fun, full of good sound advice and humor.
He spoke much in the past few years of you both, Laura (San Francisco also my home of 10 yrs.) & Mary (while you were living in...

Dear Mary,

I was shocked to read about Larry. If you don't remember who i am, i was your live-in in my senior year at AU in 1981. I took care of Laura when she was 4. My fondest memory of Larry was when he hooked me with The Bourne Identity. He realized i was not coming to dinner when you called because i could not put the book down. To this day Robert Ludlum is still my favorite author. My thoughts are with you and Laura. Take comfort in the support and love of others.

I remember Lawrie coming "home" to Connecticut to visit when I was a little girl. He always made time for me. In later years when he came to visit, he always made time to get to know my children. Larry could always make you smile..he was witty, intelligent and always fun to be around. He will be deeply missed and forever in our hearts.

Dear Andrea,
My brother, Peter De Lorenzo, and I send our deepest sympathy to you and Larry's entire family. What a great loss. Peter spoke to Larry in the last year.

While each of our parents are deceased, I just wanted you to know how much we loved you Mom and Dad. We had many happy memories, living on the same street, in Bloomfield Hills, and in our visits to Washington.

Love,
Annette De Lorenzo

Larry was the first person that I met on my first day of college. My parents had just dropped me off at the dorm and had said goodbye. Larry, a sophomore, walked down the hall and said "welcome to Dartmouth" with a can of beer held out to me. While I was in law school, he helped me get a summer job working with him at the U.S. Attorney's Office in D.C. I didn't stay in close touch with him through our respective legal careers, but frequently heard about what he was up to through my...

Special family members touch our lives in so many ways that it makes the loss difficult but his memories such a precious gift...his laughter, humor, wisdom and kind sprirt will always be with me. You are in my thoughts and prayers Mary, Laura, Andrea and Aunt Ann. Love to all, Cindy and Nicholas

I was deeply sadden to hear of your passing on home to be with your Lord and saviour. But when I think about your life here on this earth, you were truly a blessing and you touch the lives of many many people. I can truly say that you and Mary was good to my mother Luberta Bynum and you also touch the lives of her and her family. You are going to be missed. May peace and grace go out to Family, Love ones and friends.

I attended St. Michaels grade school in
Silver Spring with "Lawre" He was one of my best grade school buds. I use to play with him and our other best friend Danny McKenna. We were the 3 Musketeers! We had our 50th grade school reunion last fall (2009) and Danny and my one regret was not being able to see Larry. We will keep him in our prayers and my sincere sympathy to his family. Karl
