Not sure what to say?

Uncle Larry will always be remembered with great affection and love for his kindness to me and my family, his humour and his uncanny ability to get inside the skin of another human being and express this through his voice. His unique spirit lives on in our extended family and he will remain in my heart forever. He was truly one of a kind. Linda Murrow (Niece, Melbourne Australia)

Larry Moss was my best friend! Ralph Meyer

My father meant more to me than words can say. I really appreciate all the wonderful messages. For anyone interested in attending his memorial, it is being held on March 22 at 11am at The Unitarian Universalist Community Church located at 1260 18th Street, Santa Monica.

Larry shared his astounding talent, insight and spirit, and with humor and joy, helped us believe and discover new possibilities. He was an incredible, never-to-be forgotten teacher, coach, mentor, friend, inspiration. I always thought of him as that wonderful Pied Piper we happily followed. I am so saddened to hear of his passing and so blessed to have known his gifts. This unique, deeply sensitive artist, performer, coach and teacher shall remain in our hearts and memories as one who left...

My deepest sympathy to Larry's family and friends. I took two classes from Larry at the beginning of my broadcast journalism career, and he gave me a strong framework on which to build. He also gave me my first work on the air, on KPFK. He was a great teacher. Rest in Peace, Larry.

Remember him well from L.A.C.C.He was a fine dialects coach and good all-around guy. My sympathy to his family.

I taught with Larry at LACC and remember him has one fine person and a dedicated professional. My sincere sympathy goes out to his dear family.

The likes of Larry Moss will unlikely be seen again.
A true artist, teacher, gentleman and friend, he will truly be missed.

Condolences to his family and scores of former students and friends.

We were in school together at LACC, we worked together in many films, and Larry was more than kind and gentle...he was strong and smart and very, very funny. When my own heart was breaking during a V.O. session for War and Remembrance Larry quietly gave me a part of his own and that helped me more than I could ever say. All these years later it still helps! I'm glad his cats were vigilant.
