I'm sorry to see or even hear that someone I served with in Vietnam passed away. Larry and I served together with the 9th Infantry Division in the Mekong Delta. My wife and I visited Connie & Larry some years ago and would never would have thought I'd see his passing online. May he rest in peace!

I just came across Larry's obituary after doing a search of him & Connie in Holland. I knew and served with Larry in the 9th Division in Vietnam while operating in the Mekong Delta. My wife and I visited Connie & Larry some years ago in Holland while traveling here in MI. My condolences to Connie & her family. Another Veteran has passed!

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Essenburg family. Larry was like my second father and I'm really gonna miss him. It's an honor for me to work for the Essenburgs for 16 years and still counting. I will always have great and funny memories of Larry. Those I will never lose. Thank you Larry for everything. I learned a lot of valuable things from you. I'll always remember when you would come into the quality office and pretend you wanted to talk to me but really you only wanted a handful of...
