Not sure what to say?

My sincere condolences to you Mary and to your family for your loss. Larry is someone who I always enjoyed my conversations with, my work with and just him; such a genuine person. He will be missed my many.

Larry was an exceptional engineer. I was lucky to have worked with him for several years. He gave me a lot of valuable incite on structural analysis which I use everyday. We got to work on 6 homes and our last project was the Petaluma Storage Center. Wonderful, meaningful career and life. Larry may you rest-in-peace. Thank you so much.

Larry had the biggest smile of anyone. just like his picture. what a great person.
loved working with Larry through many wonderful years.

Built many buildings that Larry was one of the engineers.
I loved when he would ask you what do you think. He was a lot smarter than me but liked hearing from you and your thoughts
the best to his family and wonderful wife. I remember when they first meant.
you are missed.

Dear Mary and Family. I am so saddened to learn of Larry’s passing. I knew Larry through Rotary . He always greeted you with his warm and gracious smile. He had a gift of listening and caring. May he Rest In Peace. Penny Tibbetts.

I echo the sentiments of other contributors. I met Larry when I joined the Rotary Club of Santa Rosa in 2007. I had the pleasure of working on many projects with Larry. He was the consummate member, always generous of his time, energy, and expertise. We are all diminished by his absence. Miss you.

I went from Cotati Elementary to Rancho Cotate High School with this dear friend. His last name started with M mine with L. In those times we sat in alphabetical order. Larry sat behind most of the way through school. He was so smart! He treated people with respect and kindness and had a great sense of humor and a winning smile. My condolences to his beautifull family. I know they are his pride and joy. One of the world's brightest lights has moved on.......

I have fond memories of Pat, Wendy and Larry as Chiyo and I worked together at Santa Rosa Memorial and I spent many times at their home in the early 70's. My Children and I would help get the walnuts in and Chiyo would make us a delicious meal with apple pie for dessert after the walnuts were gathered. I enjoyed Larry's sense of humor and remember he enjoyed Jim Croce's songs. My heart goes out to his wife Mary and family and their loss.

To me, Larry exemplified the notion of a balanced life -- family, self, friends, profession, community. I will miss him -- his smile, his warmth, his thoughtfulness.
