Mr.Larry always made me feel like family. He was a great example of a loving faithful father. He was the smartest person I have ever met and at the same time the most humble and easiest to talk to. I will always remember him saying hows it going Hot Shot and always including me. The days spent at fernwood drive growing up were a blessing to me and Mr Larry allowed me to experience those blessings by opening his home and his life to me. Thank you Mr Larry. My prayers are with Mrs. Maraha, Jeff...
