Not sure what to say?

Still missing you and thinking of you often. Love and Peace !!! AK

My brother Jim Kott and I(Marie) just visited our brother Miles's grave in Indiantown Gap. He died in Oct. A man from wreaths across America gave two wreath. After locating Miles's grave and putting on the wreath on it Jim noticed Lawrence Lucus grave. Said it had to be Larry Lucus from Lykens.
We put the other wreath on his grave.
There are 44,000 graves and 2 Air Force vets from Lykens are near each other.
Hope you get this

I came to know Larry through my relationship with his son Benjamin. I lovingly called him Peepaw because he made me feel like a part of the family. He and his son talked on the phone most mornings and I often had the joy of sharing in their stories and laughter. And now the silence leaves a void in the force field. I'm forever grateful for the shared love.

I started working for Larry while still in high school, way back in the day. He was more than a boss; he was a friend and mentor. He was a great man to work for, and a great person to know.

Larry and Curry (Circ. 1992)

Larry was a great man and an amazing boss. He gave me my first "real" full-time job and also the best advice about finances, life, experiences, etc..He was also a very observant person...whether it be a new shade of lipstick, new earrings or new blouse he never failed to notice. My condolences to all friends and family who had the honor to know you.

I worked with Larry at Curry Printing. He was a great guy. He made me laugh every day and gave me so much advice over the years. He will be missed. Rest in peace Larry!!

Larry hired me as a graphic designer in September of 1995. I knew immediately he was a great man to work for. He gave me the nick name "Courvoisier", and I had no idea what it meant. He asked one day if I knew why. Once I said I did not, he told me it was once his favorite brand of Brandy. I took it as a compliment. I worked with him for 6 years before he sold Curry Printing. I then worked for TSI for another 6 before moving and starting my own graphic design business. I named it Kavazea...

When were were kids my cousins Larry and Joe would take a bus ride from Lykens to our house in Williamstown to see a Saturday matinee with my brothers. After the show, they would "horse around" for hours in our backyard missing all the buses to Lykens. Eventually, someone would take Larry and Joe back home. On the following Saturday they would do it all over again! This is one of my treasured memories of Larry.
