So sorry to hear that Larry has passed. I went to school, Fields Memorial, in Fitchville with him.

Dear Barbara and Family, I am so sorry to hear of Larry's passing in January. He was a good friend growing up in Fitchville, hanging out and playing sports, and will always be fondly remembered as "The Cat", always just a bit cooler than the rest of us. We went our separate ways after high school, but I did run into him a couple of times around Norwich over the years. Always just a nice guy. My sincere condolences. Rob Lenehan, Scotch Plains, NJ
