Dearest Daryl- You and Larry are uppermost in my thoughts on the eve before Larry´s Memorial. On behalf of my mother, Eva Kroy Wisbar, I am grateful that Larry was there for so many years, not only to edit her publication Art & Cinema but as her supremely knowledgeable support and friend. You and Larry in my mind are forever intertwined with my family with love and gratitude. If Tania were still with us, I know she would want to add her condolences. Maria Maria B. Hansen/ née Wisbar

A beautiful tribute to an artist and brilliant scholar, the likes of which have become a rare breed. My heartfelt condolences Daryl.

I knew Larry during the early seventies, and he was a fine, sensitive man. I left New York before he and Daryl did their performance pieces, which l regret not seeing. My condolences go out to Daryl.
