Lawrence Neiheisel Obituary

Lawrence "Larry" Neiheisel

Cincinnati - Lawrence "Larry" Neiheisel. Beloved partner of Vanessa Ernst. Devoted son of the late Margaret (Margie) and Edward (Jack) Neiheisel. Dear brother to Gary (Vickie) and Jerry (Susan) Neiheisel, Barb (Marty) Jennings-Shacat, Patty (Steve) Cagney and the late Cary Neiheisel. Dearly loved by Vanessa's daughters Tara, Jessica and Jamie, greatly influencing their lives. He loved being "PaPaw Larry". Survived by many nieces, nephews, cousins, other family members, friends and teammates. Passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, November 28, 2020 at age of 60. Larry was such a special person. He loved family and friends. He put his heart and soul into everything he did. He was driven and worked hard, doing everything with great care and precision. He enjoyed playing softball being both a good player (lots of home runs this year!) and manager. He was very creative with his many original works of art. He could see beauty in the ordinary and using resourcefulness and imagination to produce whimsical creatures of nature. He was a very caring, thoughtful, kind, loving, generous person always willing to help others, and great fun to be with.

Mark and I and our children were very sad to hear about Larry . He was a great friend , very creative with a great sense of humor. My husband Mark spent much time in his “War Room” playing Axis and Allies .Larry was present at our wedding and , when we moved in our first house and he did so much to help with renovations at our present home . We were proud to attend his art show sometime back . Much prayer and sympathy we extend to Vanessa and all of Larry’s family . He will be greatly missed.

Dear Larry was one of the first cousins that my sister, Linda, and I used to play with when we came to the Cincinnati farmhouse for 4th of July get-togethers. We would catch lightning bugs and play in the fields until dark! And last February it was Larry, as the family historian, who shared his pictures and helped me make a display on the life of my Dad, his Uncle Jim, for the Celebration of Life service when he passed away. Larry had an artist's imagination: he created sculptures from roots and stumps that he found on the farm. Larry was a good guy, taking care of the farmhouse and its remaining 6 acres. He was always eager to give a tour to visiting family and was very knowledgeable on the family history. I will miss you, cousin :-(
