Back aeons ago, when I was singing at a local dinner theater- the Medieval Manor- I got to come over and try out singing some songs with Larry Sr. Introduced by his son, Larry, we went over songs and I tried them out. He sent me home with some numbers I think "Tea for Two"? may have been one of them? but I wasn't really a seasoned enough singer so I bowed out. I saw him last summer at Larry and Laura's house and he had the same lovely manner, the same delightful twinkle in his eye. So much song and music in the family's life because of him. Along with my husband Tom we are sending to the family and extended family and friends our condolences to this beloved father, uncle, family member, friend and Musician. Diane and Tom
