Not sure what to say?

I work at a local funeral home, all of us called on Larry countless times to help us support grieving families. I could always count on Larry, whether it was for a simple blessing or a celebration of life. He would always answer and was lovingly willing to help. What a gift he brought to so many grieving families, helping celebrate lives and bring peace to those who have lost a loved one. After funeral services I conducted with Larry, families followed up with deep appreciation for me...

Larry was the first person who brought us to Hopewell House In 2009 where we volunteered until 2019. In our early days, Larry was truly the spirit of the house on all levels and was greatly missed when he left. Larry officiated at our daughter´s wedding in 2019, and along with Mary got to know our whole family. We will all miss he and Mary both. Larry would be so proud of the new Hopewell House as it is filled with true love in all that goes on from the gardens to the food to bedside care....

I worked with Larry as a Hopewell house volunteer for 7+ years. What a kind, loving and brilliant man he was! He was an expert at bringing Peace and Love to people in some of the hardest moments of their lives. He was the essence of a saint in that work! Rest well, my friend.

Larry married Julie and myself on August 6 2011 at Cape Lookout. We have kept in touch over the years. We will miss his friendship and love. Your family are in our prayers.

I knew Larry through Hopewell House, where he served as the chaplain. He was a beautiful soul and colleague! May your family be surrounded by love and grace. Rest in Peace, Larry.

Larry was the most wonderful brother-in-law. I was truly blessed to have him in my life. He was truly such an inspiration to so many and such a caring supportive soul. May his essence remain with us always.

My name is Christine Weber kearney, one of the associates of the sisters of the holy names. I knew Mary the better. I am so grateful for her. And I see that Larry followed her soon to eternal life. What a deeply happy reunion that must be! To the family, you must so miss the two of them! You are in my heart. Deep peace, Christine
