Larry Lee Stoner

Dear Stoner family, I just heard of Larry´s passing. I am so sorry for your loss. I remember him being an energetic and kind cousin. Even though I was quite a bit younger he was thoughtful enough to make me feel included. It was always exciting to get together with the Stoners at Grandma Watson´s house. May your fondest memories give you comfort and peace. His legacy will live on through his fine family and a life well lived.

I knew Larry from him being a principal at OHHS - my husband taught at OHHS

As a short time member of the OFC I really enjoyed playing golf with Larry. I am an Oak Hill graduate and knew Larry from his time as Principal. Being an educator, Larry and I would tell stories about our careers as we tried to play some golf. It seems to me that Larry was a great role model for anyone who wants be a Grandpa, Dad, educator and Christian leader! We are gonna miss you. but, I´m sure everyone that was touched by your life, has some awesome memories!

Mr. Stoner was a tremendous principal at OHHS. He was the consummate professional and always offered kind words and a smile. His positivity and bright spirit shone through. He's one of the main reasons I became an educator and am now a principal of sorts at my learning center. Prayers for your comfort and peace now and in the days ahead. Sincerely, Laurie Mauk Steinbrunner

Long before he became my school principle, he was my Sunday School Teacher at First Church of God in Marion and helped lead me to Christ. The day Tim walked into Mrs. David's 4th grade reading class as a new student I knew I had a friend with me again, being new and Oak Hill that year myself. The first day ofJr. High, the Larry was in the commons between Jr. High and High School with a smile and a huge hug for a scared girl that didn't quite fit in to any of the cliques but whoever heart he...

So sorry to hear of Larry´s passing. He never aged to me and always looked like the Royerton Redbird basketball player I remember being around. Lots of fond memories with you both with my family. Love and prayers for you and your family. Love, Sally and John Peters

So many memories of our times together as freshmen entering Purdue and living in Kneale House. Never was the athlete as Larry but we competed and had fun. Agonized together over spit-polishing shoes for ROTC that always got demerits. Late night sessions about our lives, our loves, our faith, our hoped-for careers consumed times when we probably should have been hitting the books--but it was a lot more fun! Rest-in-peace friend!!
