Larry BARTON

My dad taught me to be frugal, and to follow the money. We mostly agreed on politics, both of us fiscal conservatives, with very open-minded liberal views on so many issues. Dad was an amateur engineer, could fix and build almost anything. He was a meticulous accountant who loved mathematics, and would balance books to the penny, before computers made that work easy. He used a slide rule, loved to drive his cars on rallys, always had a funny story. He used coupons, subscribed to several...

I met Larry through Neil, when we were both finding out who we were, in Dayton. Neil taught me the word, gymkhana, I'm Looking for Neil-to reminisce, and perhaps write a short story.

With deepest sympathy on loss of your love one. May it bring comfort you to know that he will return to the days of his youthful vigor as promised at Job 33:25.

Larry and I along with a group of 5 or 6 other friends (Herbie, Bob, Norm, Mike, Ronnie and Jerry) planned one adventure after another during our high school years. We played a lot of gin rummy and poker, but most of our escapades have to remain secret to protect the guilty parties! Time and distance may have separated us, but we always called each other "friend." Thanks for the memories Larry. You will be missed.

I will always remember Larry's warm smile, even if sometimes he was smiling because he had just scored a point against you with his wicked serve in beachball volleyball. Many fond memories of our fun times at the YMCA!

So sorry to hear. We will miss you and all the good times we had dancing over the years. You were one of the best joke tellers I ever knew. Mike Myers/Lytha Miller....

We didn't know Larry long, but he was the heart of our dance club,
and a terrific guy. Hope he can spell Chechoslovakia as he said
in one of his jokes.
God Bless

Sorry to hear of Larry's passing, I would like to offer my sincere condolences to his family. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, and that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. In the days to come may you find comfort in that hope.
