Not sure what to say?

Worked for his catering company while living in Dothan in 2004-2005, he was very talented and knew everything you needed to know about cooking, flower arranging and randomly, ice skating although not exactly what you would call "a nice person" lol. He was an outstanding teacher and I learned a ton from him, and will remember him always, even now in 2025, I think about him or his teachings almost weekly, especially while in my catering kitchen. His reach is far, as I am in North Alabama, South...

Even before we started elementary school, our mothers were friends so Larry came to my prekindergarten birthday parties and we shared other special occasions. I have fond memories of being blessed by Larry's friendship, caring nature and by seeing his smile through all 12 years until we graduated from high school and I moved away. From reading the messages from many of his friends, it is clear that he continued to bless and inspire the lives of others throughout his life through his genuine...

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

The world has lost a wonderful talented man. Anyone who had Larry as a teacher holds fond memories of him in their heart.

I am so sad and surprised by Mr. Williams' passing. He was an awesome teacher. I really enjoyed him as a theater teacher. Mr. Williams will be truly missed.

I am so sad to hear of Larry's death. He was way more than a teacher to me. He was truly one of the best friends I have ever had. Larry always saw the best in me and encouraged me in what ever I choose to do in life. When I went away to college and for many years after, Larry's house was always my first stop in Dothan on the way home. If he wasn't there, I would visit with his mom. I always felt welcomed and loved. I will never forget him and what he has meant to me. HEGABA

Murry, Jerry and families, Larry and I grew up in Southside Baptist Church together from our earliest years. VBS, youth group trips, football games, riding around on Sunday afternoons and after evening services in Flo Fraley's older gray car (bought by one of our older friends) and many other activities. We rode to school together our junior and senior years, spent lunch (coke and cheese crackers) in the covered area under the library. His strawberry cake was wonderful and but the baked...

The world just got a little less theatrical without Larry in it....He was tough at times but only wanted the best for me...You will be missed!

A very sad thing, the world losing Larry. What an influence he was on me and my career direction. He'll be missed.
