Not sure what to say?

This hits me hard. I worked with Larry at Kaiser Aluminum beginning in 1977 for a few years. He was a very special person to me. A Fun Guy. I always loved it to hear him give a rip roaring laugh. He called me up about 20 years ago and I really appreciated that. I got laid off on Nov.18,1981 and I’ve missed him. I offer my sympathy to the family. Jeffrey Fields. Racine Ohio.

Peace and comfort be with the entire family. From the stories his son Chris shared with me through the years, no doubt he had an amazing father to learn from, who will be sorely missed by those he left behind.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. The Lord is close to the broken hearted.
One day we will all be reunited, Reunion day.

First met Larry in mid 1970s while at Kaiser Aluminum I&L dept. we turned flat sheet together. Liked to talk about history and West Virginia. Fished in the mountains together. Spend last years working together in pot repair. Then 40 some days on the Occupy sight at Century Aluminum. Proverbs 18:24.

I was glad to have met him when I came to Beckley to bury my mother, Carolyn Boggs. Uncle Larry was one of her favorite people, and she always talked about him after her visits back home.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

My heart is so heavy I can hardly speak. My retiree army lost a true and valiant warrior last night. Larry Williams was a fighter for what he believed in. Many families lives are better for the battle we fought for 7 long years....and Larry was always the first one to say yes when I called. He had a sweet and humorous personality and was a joy to be around. We traveled many miles across the country together...fighting for justice....determined to never give up until justice was served. Larry...

Thought and prayers are with you.

Love,

Becky, Dana, and Zoey McDonald and Bill and Margaret Terry.
