Not sure what to say?

Larry was a unique individual! We played tennis together and listened to his Elvis tapes! Still miss him after all these years!

Larry was my tennis buddy. I loved the guy and will never forget him!

I'm so sorry to hear of Larry's death. Larry and I spent our childhood in Waupun, WI. He and I started in kindergarten, and graduated from Waupun High School together after which we lost track of each other.

I was a former student of your father in my junior year at Kutztown. I was an art education major who fortunately enjoyed math throughout my years in school and did very well in the subject. Your father had an excellent way of relating the material to students who struggled while maintaining a challenge for the remainder of the class. He was a wonderful professor.!

Sorry to hear this. We go back to graduate school at Lehigh. Lots of memories.

Family of Professor Mugridge:

I am sorry to learn of the passing of Professor Mugridge.

I had the priviledge of being a student in some of his Math Classes at Kutztown University in the 1980s.

In addition to Math, we shared similar tastes in music, movies, and literature.

My Condolences..

I was saddened to see that Larry had passed away. I only knew Larry for a few summers in the 70s as an 8 year old learning how to play tennis for the very first time. Just wanted to thank Larry for giving me a gift, the life-long passion for the game of tennis. My condolences to his family and friends.
