Not sure what to say?

Eva and Doug - I'm so sorry to hear about Larry. I know you will miss him so much. You and your family are in my prayers. Love you, Regina

Sending our prayers and condolences to his daughters Jill, Jodie, and Jamie, whom we knew in Tyler in the 80's when our 3 sons were growing up there also.
You were an inspiration to so many students and friends. I know the fruit of your life for Christ will continue to bless many. We regret we could not attend the memorial service today. Praying for entire family today. Love, Dr. Greg and Mrs. Dorothy Parsons and Family of Jacksonville.

May God keep the family lifted up in His Hands, give you peace, and may you comfort one another. To loose Larry is a los to many, he was a wonderful, son, father, grandfather,brother, husband, teacher, and friend. Time will heal some of the hurt, we who knew him will keep his memory alive, as we share stories, and remember him as the awesome man he was. He loved people, teaching, learning, and his family, and friends.

Dear Larry - You will missed by so many. You were one of the wittest men I've known and your timely comments during our Life Group Sunday morning class are already missed. Your tender spirit and love for others will be missed. Thank you for your devotion to God and your righteous walk. You were and are an example for all of us who knew you. Marcia Robbins

Larry was a fellow AP teacher at Highland Park High and he was an excellent caring teacher. We had many political discussions and I always learned something! He will be hard to replace and we be sorely missed by peers and students!

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your loved one. May your families loving memories and the "peace of God that excels all thought" prove to comfort your family in this time of sadness.

Deepest Sympathy

As a fellow teacher, it meant a lot to me to be able to "talk shop" with Larry while I was away from my teaching ministry in Taiwan. I could tell from our few conversations that he had a love for teaching and for doing right by his students. I will miss hearing his strong, cheerful voice in our LIfe Group meetings. Enjoy your wonderful new home, Larry. We grieve, but we can also celebrate a meaningful life and be thankful that we were able to know you.

Mr. Jackson was a great teacher and a great man. He will surely be missed. He was one of my favorite teachers.

I am so very sorry to hear this. Mr Jackson was one of my most favorite teachers at Lee in Tyler. I really am without words and my eyes are full of tears. Prayers will be going up for your family Mr. Jackson! Thanks for being one of the few teachers who made learning a hard subject fun and practical! You truly had a gift.
