Larry Eyster Obituary

Larry E. Eyster



Larry E. Eyster, 78, of Rio Rancho, passed away peacefully surrounded by family, on Monday, Dec. 25, 2017 due to complications with congestive heart failure.

Preceding him in death was his wife Connie. He is survived by his daughter Angela Manning and son-in law Dean of Albuquerque; son Michael Eyster and Veronica, of Albuquerque; and son David Eyster, of Auburn, CA. He is also survived by eight grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, two sisters and many other family members and friends.

Larry was born in Angola, IN and lived many years in Lindsey, OH before moving to Albuquerque in October of 1982. After numerous years of management in the printing business, Larry fulfilled his dream of being on the open road as a driver and completed millions of miles before retiring in 2004 from ABF Freight Systems. After retirement he and his loving wife traveled the country for two years before settling back down in Rio Rancho. Larry continued to love traveling and enjoyed the local casinos.

Larry will be remembered by his awesome sense of humor and the ability to recall a joke about any subject you could think of.

A private family memorial will take place at a later date. The family would like to thank Presbyterian Hospice for the wonderful helping care. Those wishing to make memorial donations can do so in his name to American Heart Association, PO BOX 841125 Dallas, TX 75284-1125, or online at www.heart.org To leave a condolence please visit the online guest book at
