Had the great pleasure to work with Larry at Tanana Middle School. He was a great teacher well liked by staff, students and parents. Larry was always willing to help out and always had a smile on his face. I remember Larry doing all the announcing for the wrestling tournament each March. A great guy, Rest in Peace Larry.
