"Uncle Larry" will not be forgoten. I knew Larry for several years, but only got to work with him for a short time. Larry encouraged me to start my adventure in Alaska. I carry one or the other of two custom made knives that Larry made, everywhere I go. I will cherish them and think of Larry on every adventure I have. I wish that he could have come with me. Donna and Chad my thoughts and prayers are with you. God bless you and keep you.

I worked with Larry for 14 years and know of his dedication to a job well done. Larry was always helpful, and shared generously of his knowledge and skills. Central Maine benefitted directly through Larry's exemplary service at the Kennebec Water District. Larry had a great sense of humor and never shy with his opinions. I very much enjoyed my friendship with "Uncle" Larry and very grateful for all the knowledge he shared with me. I will miss him, my thoughts and prayers are with Donna...
