What a privilege to have a steadfast friend in Larry for so many years. Larry dedicated his life's energy to his family, profession and those friends near and dear to him.

Larry, affectionately know as the BIG GUY will forever be missed but not forgotten.

Larry's whimsical sense of humor was without equal.

He will always have a special place in our hearts. See you on the other side, Larry.

A good classmate and friend he will be missed
