Not sure what to say?

My parents were best friends with Larry (Mr. Killick) and Rhoda (Mrs. Killick). There were few in life that were as personable as Mr. Killick. He was one of the most charismatic and personable guys one could know. I spent some good times listening to Larry's stories, basketball times at Dartmouth and shooting baskets in their pool hoop as a kid while on summer vacation at their home in Cocoa Beach. My father (Arnold Belasco), recently passed (December 21, 2016) but my dad told stories of...

Dear Rhoda and All of the extended Killick Family. We will mourn and miss Larry for longer then we know and of course you will for much longer.Always enjoyed having meals with you when the boys were growing into men. What laughs and good times. We hope you are able to find peace in the future and always remember we all thought he was a fine man as well as his family are a joy. We love you, Donna and Jim

The three Lynch kids grew up hearing all about Larry Killick from our dad, Robert "Caddy" Lynch. Dad is no longer with us, but we know he would want us to extend our sympathy & prayers to your family.

The killicks lived across the street on Green Street. Larry always included my brother and I whenever he and his friends went swimming at the beach.He was such a great basketball player. He is the one that gave me a passion for the sport. Larry was selected to play on the East squad for College All Star east- west game that was played in Madison Square Garden in NYC.I remember when he spearheaded UVM to beat Manhatten before a packed house at the Memorial Auditorium.I'll miss his Christmas...

As a youth, I remember Larry as one of the famed K-Boys of UVM basketball fame..

Larry became a very good friend and frequent lunch partner. His sincere personality and his personal accomplishments demanded admiration and respect.

Our friendship was much too long in the making. I will miss his constant quips and stories.

Larry's sincerity will be a cherished memory.

I met Larry on my first Honor Flight I had other duties that day, but I kept coming back to talk to Larry an extremely interesting person, Marine and part of great generation, RIP Larry and Semper Fi!
