l never was so stunned by reading the news about Larry. l lost touch with you over the years when l moved to Arizona and got married. God bless you all tho. My eyes teared up as l read the news.

I worked with Larry for almost two years while we were both in Heidelberg, Germany. He taught me a lot about theater and film. I never met a more enthusiastic individual in my life. -James Richmond 1941-.. Love Ya Larry

I worked with Larry on Tokyo DisneySeas in the 90's in Los Angeles at WDI. He would effortlessly brainstorm and pitch the live shows, taking wins and losses in stride. On smoke breaks I talked to him about life, his then new Dance archive he was heading, and his amazing career. I looked up his name to see if he was still available! Realizing he would be near 80, I assumed he was long retired. Deeply regret never meeting him again. He is a type of soul you only rarely come across. Though...

Larry was so fun to work with and to be around! He was front and center in many of my dearest memories. I remember especially how his wit and humor always carried us through the close calls! He could really make me laugh!
I'm so sorry to learn of his passing.
To Tomo, Saadia, Sekiya and to all his family, you are in my prayers.
I wish you well as you continue on your journey, Larry.
Love, Stephanie Stromer

Larry has kept me laughing since our first meeting in 1959. He has remained a loyal and loving pal throughout all the adventures of his amazing life. His love for his beautiful Tomo and family has always been front and foremost. Larry proved to be the best friend a person could ever have had. How could a man who was so dear have blended so many gifts of talent with such a loving personality and generous soul? He did...it was simply Lar. The world has lost a one of a kind human. I...

I remember Larry from Jr. Hi and High School. When I was in 7th grade, I used to get to the playground early to listen to his stories and comedy routines--he had a following even then. Later, in high school, he directed some of us in musicals and student shows. We also sold ads for the Yearbook. He drove the car (we only had learner's permits) and made us all laugh when at a stop sign he shouted,"everybody out for a fire drill!" He was a beautiful person.
