Larry and Tess Kunz

I worked for Larry at Grand Central for several years. He was such a great person. I had total respect for him and for his ability to work with people - and for his unfaltering love and devotion for Tess. We lost 2 wonderful people.

Larry and Tess epitomized lives well lived, having made this world a better place through their example, friendship, care and compassion

Dear Larry, Callie & family:

Please know our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time of great loss. We were privileged to know your parents in Elgin, IL, and always appreciated our interactions with them.

Your mother's talents were a wonderful combination with those of your father, who we had more frequent interaction with. I personally appreciated the leadership and interactions with your father at Lee Wards. He was ALWAYS a gentleman and a gentle man, even in...

I worked at LeeWards and knew Larry. He was always kind and helpful to everyone. May him and his wife rest in peace. Thoughts and prayer to the families.

Debra, Jill & Larry Jr., my thoughts and prayers are with you at this very sad time. I was your Dad's secretary from 1973 until he left for Lee Ward. He is someone I admired so very much. I have worked for a few and your Dad is the only one that if your Mother called, NO MATTER what he was doing, he took her call. They will be greatly missed. God bless you all.

I have heard many wonderful stories about Larry and how kind and gentle he was and how he always put eveyone else first. The bond him and my mother shared was very special. My thoughts and prayers go out to Larry and Tess and their families at this difficult time. Scott Leslie Martin, youngest son of Sandra Kunz Martin, grandson of Leslie Kunz.

Larry & Callie, We are so sorry for your loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers. We love you. Gene & Laura Pranger

In a world where people change spouses as easily as a new pair of shoes, how wonderful to read an obituary of two such devoted and amazing spouses.
I remember them as young and vibrant as classmates, but had no idea of their outstanding lives.
It must be some comfort, that they are still together, although it is twice as difficult for the family who love them.
Blessings to the family.

I visited with Tess in July regarding our 60 year class reunion. It was fun to reminisce and recall fun and common bonds that held us together. Larry was in my Sunday School class in 2nd ward in Montpelier and was loved by all who knew him. Both of them were extremely bright and talented. My love and sympathy is extended to their families as I'm sure are also extended by the many members of our class of '53 who have contacted me this past few days.
