Larry will surely be missed. He talked so often of all of his Iron Worker friends and all of his buddies from "the diner". I didn't know him for as long as some of you but in the few short six years here in SC he was a man with a heart of gold. Not many people left on this Earth like him. I will always remember our talks and especially the last few times we shared drinking milk shakes and eating breakfast at the Waffle House.
