Hard to believe it's been 10 years since we lost Larry. He and Sandy are together again. We will always remember Larry and still miss him. Took this photo of Larry and Sandy in Oct 2004 when they visited us in Albuquerque - on top of Sandia Peak at 10,000'.

The Washington State Veterans Cemetery extend our deepest sympathies to the family of Lawrence W. Poole for your loss, to honor his service to our country and our patriotic hero.

I spent most of my time at Rogers High around Larry in our Homeroom. I spent several summers bucking hay bales with Larry. A great "buddy" and friend he was always a pleasure to be around. Its hard to believe he is gone.

May God bless and give peace to his family and friends until we finally see him in heaven.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Sandy, Anna & Jeff. Larry was an incredible kind and loving husband and father. May God grant you all comfort and peace at this difficult time.

I graduated with Larry at John Rogers. I have many fond memories of our time in band with Mr. Foster. I also knew his sister Gail. My prayers are with your family during this difficult time.

Sandy, I remember all the fun times we had together in college, always hanging out at your house. (Larry always had to put up with us).
Larry truly has a beautiful soul; joyous, peaceful, and full of grace and love. I pray for you and your family during this time.

We are so sorry for your loss. We have such great memories of your family together at softball games and our girls starting to school together. Always enjoyed Larry's wit and gentle heart. Much love and sympathy! Chet & Arlene

We were so blessed to see you and Larry at the Weber/Vaughn retirement party in June at the Spokane House! Our hearts are with you, Sandy at this most difficult and sudden loss - we agree with others - Larry was such a gentle, quiet and caring soul! Gail and Ed Newman
