Larry, finally made it to Peoria and your final resting place. Merry and Tuxey look great and your grave marker is beautiful. It portrays the life you lived and the people, pets and things that were such a part of your well lived life. I can't believe you have been gone more than 13 years now. It seems like yesterday you and Merry were visiting us in Maui, eating, laughing, and having such a great time. Jerry and I will cherish those memories and we'll never forget you my friend. We...

Remembering one of the best employers I have had the pleasure to work for/with. Remember his using the term "wiggle room" when talking about sales. Always had a smile for everyone and made working for Byerly Aviation such a joy.

Our condolences to the family, knew Larry well for about 25 years. He basically introduced me to Commanders, he came to El Paso and helped me sell two new Commanders to two competing Nissian dealers. Have to say I have been in the aircraft sales bussiness 49 years but this sale and Larry's firneship is still the highlight of my career, Bob Larsen, El Paso Aircraft and Lock Haven Aircraft.

I retired eight years ago as an American Airlines 767 Captain. I still remember a cold winter night from forty three years ago when Larry put a seventeen year old line boy in the left seat of a snub nosed Aztec, and let me fly it back from STL to PIA. I'll be forever grateful to Larry for helping me fulfill my dream of becoming a pilot.

Merry--I am so sorry. As you know Larry and I were best of friends at P.H.S. This is like losing a wonderful part of my life. I found this out in searching on facebook for Larry today. I could go on and on about the wonderful friend he was in hi school and all the years after. Jim Reece

Merry - it is (Tom) Tommy Waldon here and I am so so saddend to have found out that Larry has passed away so suddenly. I am out in California right now for a while for business and Mike McCabe had alerted me to Larry's passing.
I wanted you to know that I am thinking and praying for both you and Larry and hope it is somewhat comforting that you and Larry were always in my thoughts and miss you very much to this day. It has been such a long time since I have seen or talked with...
