Not sure what to say?

My brother Joe & I first met Larry in January of 1972 when he was the agent who rented us the house across the street from where he lived on Price Way. Meeting Larry was a game changer. In 1973 when that rental house went on the market, Larry said.. "Why don´t you buy it?" We said.."We can't buy a house", and he responded.."Sure you can". Through his efforts we managed to purchase that Price Way rental. Over the course of the 70s we became great friends, attended each other´s house...

Larry was instrumental in helping us buy our first home. He lived across the street from my then fiancé, Gary Anger. Not too long after we were married (1975), Larry called and said he´d found the perfect house. We really weren´t even ready to look yet. But through Larry´s kindness, we were able to own a house briefly before we moved to Oregon with HP and earn enough equity for a down payment on a house there. We will always be grateful.

My sincere condolences to Mary Lou and the entire family. I got to k ow Larry the past couple of years through music. I always appreciated his requests for music by the Eagles and his positive feedback when I played in the Oro Valley area. I will miss him.
