I will always remember the great meals Larry put together so easily, yet always tasted so divine when I was in my adolescent years! He always treated me with a respect and kindness whenever we had a conversation. He was a man of many gifts and talents that I always admired and respected. Larry will always hold a place in my mind and heart from those youthful days from my timeless past. W. Ward

Our most sincere condolences to Larry´s family and close friends. We attended an Art Hop event and met Larry and his wife. My wife and I were quite taken by his paintings and after talking with him we were invited to his studio. There we purchased a very large (4 feet by 6 feet) abstract named "Passage".

Larry´s paintings told a story only he could tell.

Very sad to hear about Larry! I really enjoyed his personality and talents from those timeless Bullard days with the gang when we were all young. Wishing Blessings to his family from a now aged old friend who will always have fond memories of those priceless good old days! Wes Ward

So sorry in hearing of the passing of your father. Prayers for your entire family.

Larry was a very gifted artist and a true gentleman. He led a long and fruitful life and I am richer for being able to call him my friend. He will be missed by so many.
