“There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love.”- Washington Irving. Love is the gift he accepted and gave back in return- tenfold. My prayers and much love go out to family and friends of Larry...a magnificent miracle of God. Stacey H.

My prayer is that the family of Larry knows that Larry was one that will always be remem.bered. I remember the first time I worked with Larry as his substitute teacher. Once I got to know Larry I looked forward to having lots of Laughs and buying him some butter cookies. I believe Larry knew the Lord. We will definitely miss him but God loves him more. He is no longer in pain or suffering. I pray that the family knows the Lord and that God will give them comfort.
