My sympathy to the family for your immeasurable loss. I feel it myself as a distant friend and co-worker of Larry's at the AAA Flint office in the 70's. I was very glad to see him just a few years ago when he looked me up at the Traverse City office. I always viewed him as the consummate insurance professional who was equally adept as a party goer. His company was most desirable. I was pleased and proud to be a friend.

Aunt Jo, Terry, Jean, James & John,
Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing away of Mr. Rickfelder. We have been praying for all of you. I knew him as "Uncle Larry". I have such great memories of Uncle Larry growing up. He was a loving, caring, awesome and sweet man. Being able to spend time with your family and feeling we were a part of your family shaped me. I looked up to Uncle Larry and all of you too. May his memory be eternal as with all the Saints in Heaven....
