My husband and I knew Larry well from the JBO, and will miss his quick wit and his way with words.

Our condolences go out to his entire family. He will be missed.
Sincerely,
Nancy and Ken Robbins

To Brian ( cousin) and the Griffin family,

I loved seeing him come into the Boyle @ 2 o'clock sharp for his 2 pints of Coors light. His with my mother and sister and the rest of r family now. God bless you Larry I will miss you lots as will the John Boyle.

My condolences to Regina and Family --- Larry was a double threat as a pitcher and hitter on the Post 430 Softball Team. Larry was regarded by many as being the best and I was privileged to be his catcher for many years. A wonderful friend to all who knew him.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
