Not sure what to say?

Dear Raelene and Beverly: I worked with your Mom at Amp, and sort of kept in touch with your Dad. I just tried to call him, as I usually do around Christmas. I knew he was having some problems when I spoke with him last year. I am so sorry for your loss. You have my deepest sympathy and my thoughts and prayers.

I too worked with Larry at Cutmans Atlantic on Rt 22 late 60's 70's. the man knew his stuff. RIP my friend.

Larry, Pat and I will miss you. You were a great freind and we will not forget you. Rest in peace, our dear freind.

With deepest sympathy to Larry's family from the Central Dauphin High School Alumni Association.

Condolences and prayers to Reylene, Bev, Jean and families Rahn & Carol Feidt

I knew Larry from his racing days with the Ford folks in Grantville. We went to a lot of drag races all over the place. I appreciated his technical knowledge to build powerful engines. We also boated a bit, and I'll never forget how hard he tried to whip me out of the tube on Raystown Lake. My thighs and rear end were black and blue for weeks from skipping across the lake like a stone. We had a lot of fun.

Larry and his family were our good neighbors when I was growing up. I send my condolences to Raelene and Bev and their families.

My wonderful long time friend. He will be missed, and will always have a special place in my heart. Love and condolences to Jean and family
