R.I.P. LARRY FROM MORENO FAMILY

We'll miss you greatly. Rest In Peace Larry.

A gentle giant, Larry was always someone you could just sit down with and know you were going to be touched in some way. A true man of kindness who will be missed greatly.

Larry taught me so much about life and love not just construction. He was truly a man among men. So many good memories from working for him for 6 years. I will truly miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Hug Mary Lee for me, Larry. Love you Big Guy!

We'll all be OK Pop. Will miss you.
