Not sure what to say?

A great friend and mentor, he was tuff as nails yet full of love and generosity. A true patriot. May he rest in peace.

Great fishermen, ,BBQ master the best ribs I've ever had...enjoyed your company and conversation, ,,DAVID BRIDGES

I am so sorry to learn that a great teacher and boss has passed away. Though I hadn't seen him in years I still thought of him and Vic often.

Larry you were such a big part of my younger years growing up. You were the deciding factor on me joining the Army. That was a major turning point in my life, so I thank you for that. I know the last years we weren't as close as we once were, but you were always my brother and I thought of myself as your little sister. I will miss you and pray you rest in peace. Love Ann Lori.

You are absent from my sight but not from my heart I miss you.

I am saddened to hear one of our friends (neighbor ) has passed away You will be missed

We will all miss Larry; He touched so many of our lives as a Colleague here at Eaton Southfield.
