Not sure what to say?

Rip Larry! We are relieved to hear your suffering is finally over...hope your cooking this crazy Sunday morning breakfasts for the rest of the Angels up there...

Our prayers are about Larry, and with your family. Larry, I and his team accomplished so much, both days and nights of work during the almost 30-years together, and the world is wiser and better because of our efforts. Larry was a good and decent friend whom I and many others shall miss his dedication and honesty.

Uncle Larry stepped up to the plate when I was at one of the lowest points in my life. I will forever be grateful for his guidance and putting up with my teenage antics at a crucial turning point in my life.

My husband and I met Larry and Pam in Lamaze class almost 23 years ago. It was the start of an enduring friendship between the families. Our love,thoughts and prayers go out to Pam and all of Larry's children,who we all know he loved very dearly.

My heartfelt condolences to his family, whom he loved dearly. Larry was a USPS co-worker, and was always willing to drop whatever he was doing to lend me his support. His kindness will never be forgotten. Rest-in-peace Larry.

I was blessed with the privilege of having worked with Larry for 25 memorable years. I will remember Larry as a very good honorable fun caring man.

I don't think any one person affected me as much as Larry. I worked under him for 12 years at USPS-Engineering. I would have to compare him to Mozart in that he had this amazing ability to cover numerous subjects and new ideas and have them all figured out in detail while we were still just starting. He completed the composition while we were struggling with which notes to play. He brought out the best and worst in me, but was always there as a friend. Since he retired life hasn't been the...

I am so sorry to hear about Mr. Sackett! Having been friends with Mandy since we were in kindergarten I have always felt so close to the whole family! I am totally shocked and sad to hear about his passing. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

All of us who worked with Larry for many years miss him greatly. His no-nonsense approach was as refreshing as it was warm and genuine. Much aloha to his family and friends from the left coast.
