Lawrence Edward Colyer

Oh dear. I am so sorry to hear that Larry has passed. I had the privilege and joy to be in a Schenectady based jug band - Mother´s Own Good Time- and Larry was a fantastic guitarist in the group. Always warm, friendly and amusing he had a tremendous musical ability and knowledge. I feel really sad today now that the Angels have laid him away. But I am so happy to read about the success he made of his life. Bill Martin

I was so sad to hear about Larry's passing. He was not only a valued colleague and coworker, but a good friend. He was a pleasure to work with; he knew his stuff and when things looked bleak, his indefatigable good humor carried the day. He always did the right thing, even when it wasn't the easiest thing. I valued his friendship so much, I invited him and his wife Jane to our daughter's wedding, on the Captain JP cruise on the Hudson in 1989. Please accept my very sincerest condolences on...

Jane, my wife and I express our deepest condolences to you and your family for the loss of your husband Larry. Larry was my manager in the early nineties. He was a great friend and mentor who made me aware of Empire State College and supported me to finish my degree in business administration. He was well respected by all the people working for him in Latin America. Larry was a very compassionate man and respected by many of us who knew him. RIP, Sir.

Fond memories. Many travels!

Although we have lived far apart recently I will miss Larry remembering the good time we all spent. A coworker that I highly respected we once spent a day or two in Calcutta India working for GE. I have wonderful memories of times with Larry on the various golf courses. We were neighbors in the Rosedale community in Bradenton where we shared social events particularly at Janes great parties.

My friend stood tall in this life and he will be missed by so many left behind.

Jane and Family I will always be grateful for the friendship you and Larry showed me just when I needed it. It was Larry who pointed out to me how much better I seemed after I met Mary. We thank you for inviting us into your home. I always enjoyed talking to Larry. We didn't agree on some things but he always took time to listen and discuss both sides of an issue. He made the world a better place. We could use a lot more people like Larry. Requiescat in pace.

Will always remember Larry fondly for his gentle giant personality, his upstanding character, and his wonderful sense of humor. He will definitely be missed by all who knew him.
