Not sure what to say?

My thoughts & prayers are with you all. I was very sad to hear of Larry's passing. Over the last 21 years, since I moved to Naples, FL, Larry & I have always stayed in contact through calls, birthday cards, Holiday cards, etc. We shared our fondness of gardening, flowers & birds. He & Elaine came to Naples to visit with me. I was honored and blessed. I thank him for being the "best" Father In Law a girl could have! He was a GREAT soul! I admire him, his service to our Country, such a...

Sympathy to the family. Uncle Larry was such a pleasant man and so helpful to Mom and Dad. Wasn't able to be at the funeral but you were in my thoughts.

I always loved listening to Lawrence's stories when he, was at Grandma and Grandpa Barth's house...like when electricity finally came down their road and they got electric lights in their house...as a child I was fascinated by that. I am grateful for his service to our country, his faith in our Lord and Saviour, and for the time he was granted on this earth. Peace be with you all.

An incredible man I will forever remember. I have known him my entire life and enjoyed his smiles, hugs and conversation. He made such an impact upon me and others when we traveled with our church group to provide construction help after Hurricane Katrina in Biloxi, MS. What a talented man. I enjoyed being around Larry every time I saw him. His service to our country and community will be forever appreciated and cherished. Rest in Peace, dear and sweet Larry. Hugs in Heaven.

I remember Uncle Larry helping my mom with some small remodeling jobs after my dad passed away when I was just a girl. He was a good man. Rest In Peace.

I feel deep sadness in learning of Larry's passing. He always held a special place in my heart. I have many wonderful memories of our holidays together and his impromptu visits to our home. I'm so happy I was able to experience with the family him coming back from his Old Glory Flight at ATW. Not a dry eye in the entire airport. I enjoyed his backyard family gatherings, touring his garden, and his fish pond. He was always so kind and generous to the girls and I. Big hug to the entire...

FAMILY: I was proud and honored to have gotten to know Larry. His good friend Richard Reinhart, Larry and I got to go to the EAA air show at Oshkosh together several times. He shared many of his memories and thoughts with Dick and I. An amazing and humble war HERO for sure. This last year he was sharing some of these stories with us at lunch. I asked him, after you flew your final mission, what did you do. He said the famous General Curtis Lemay called him into a private meeting at his...

Thank you for your service to our country. May you rest in peace.
