56 years since our H. S. Graduation. Hardly seems possible. Wish you were still with us, but that wasn't God"s plan. Rest in Peace!

Not forgotten! Thought of often! Hope you're doing well, Terry. Blessings... TOM MUELLER

Larry was a idol as a young basketball player in Jr. High. I could not wait until Friday night to watch Larry play. He was a Great talent.

Larry was a great athletes,both ability wise and intelligence wise.He was part of my family in the early years. He was our shortstop in the Northeastern Michigan adult baseball league. We even brought his cousin Mike Rea on to the team.We we´re friends for many yrs. We drifted apart when he moved to the GR area.We made contact every now and then.I was his coach and at times his mentor,but more importantly we were friends. My prayers to his family durning these difficult times. Coach Plecas

Knew Larry thru his coaching and umpiring . A class guy who mentored other young coaches and officials. Always a positive day when you ran into Larry. RIP and heaven is a better place today because of your arrival. Terry Bocian
