I will never forget "Mr. Larson" taking his wonderful daughter Pam and I to North Beach! The Larson family was absolutely terrific to grow up with. Mr. Larson was extremely kind, and worked very hard for his family. His intelligent mind manifested beautifully into his children. I´m very lucky I had the privilege of being his neighbor, and to have his daughter as my dear childhood friend.

Howard, Marlene and David's family - While we only knew David casually, we will remember all the outstanding leadership he took in the building of a new club house at Cress Creek Country Club. We are sorry he will not be able to see the completion of this project. We will be thinking of you and our prayers will be with the whole Larson family.

He encouraged me professionally and brought joy to my life. My deepest condolences to his beloved family, and may God hold in peace this dear, special man.
