I was greatly saddened to read of Larry's passing.
I remembered what remarkable artistic talent he had; particularly the cover of the Junior High Year Book... with humor as well.
My heartfelt thoughts are with his family... and may he rest in peace.

I am deeply saddened to learn of Larry's passing. We were classmates in Junior High & High School & were both active in the art department.
Larry & I both illustrated the year book in Junior High. We also crossed paths at antique shows and discussed art and beautiful objets d'art. My brother also knew Larry & his family. Our condolences to those who loved him.
Sincerely,
Donna-Lee Young Rubin
