Not sure what to say?

I could always count on Larry...to make me laugh or strategize on problem solving.

He was hilarious, sensitive and imaginative. Unlikely combinations.

I will miss calling him and asking him for advice. It will never be the same.

Larry was a great actor, writer, director, but more importantly, a great guy. I took my nephews to see a year with toad & frog. He stood in the lobby and took pictures with every kid that wanted one, my nephew included. He will be missed by so many.

My condolences to Larry's family and his theatre family. To go as such an early age is such a loss.]I never knew Larry personally, but have been an admirer of his work on and off stage and will remember the joy he brought to all. Casting will be hard pressed to find the proper understudy.

You will always be in my heart Larry - thank you for being such a bright light ❤

To the family,
I am sorry to hear of your sudden loss. May the God who binds up the brokenhearted: and comforts all who mourn sustain your family during this challenging time.

-with heartfelt sympathy

I was an Apprentice with the Commonwealth Shakespeare Company. We were lucky enough to get an improv masterclass with Larry, and he was a wonderfully instructive and supportive teacher, and a brilliant comedic mind. He will be missed.

I met Larry at Brandeis many moons ago, did a couple of shows and moved on. We reconnected a few years ago and had wonderful long distance conversations. I got to see him in Frog and Toad a couple of years ago and had a lovely conversation as if no time had passed. I will miss his birthday greetings and horoscopes, and his enthusiasm for Lost in Space. Farewell. We'll miss you.

My sincere condolences on your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
