Goodbye my friend. Maybe we'll meet again.

I have been going to the Walgreens at Warner & Dobson for many years. And recently, I hadn't seen Larry in a while, and just today asked one of the cashiers about where Larry's been lately. She told me that Larry had died. I was immediately crushed. Although I'd only seen Larry in my trips to Walgreens, it seems hes' played a part in my life for quite sometime. My heart was heavy with sorrow and a sudden emptiness overwhelmed me. I said a prayer for him, and cried all the way home. Larry was such a kind, soft spoken man. I felt I could talk to him and tell him so many things. And he'd listen. My heart goes out to his family. Rest In Peace, Larry. You will be missed.

I worked with my friend Larry for over two years while I was with Walgreens. My favorite person to talk with, kind of like a big brother or father figure. He would be proud of my accomplishments, whether work or personal, and always concerned for my well being, as I would be with his. he was so excited for me when I bought my new house, always offering to help with anything I needed. after I left, I'd stop to say hi and chat about life's goings-ons. Larry will always be so close to my heart. I am proud to be his friend. I offer my condolences for Larry's family, I've heard a lot about you.

It was with sadness that I heard of Larry's
Passing.
I have memories of us on the farm in Marengo as a kid. Though he was a lil older than me he always made time. He was such a gentle person.
Rest In Peace.
