I'm deeply saddened by his passing and condolences to the family and friends of such a great man
We met in the 80s and became instant friends as Larry was able to do with so many. He was always a joy to be around and had a wry sense of humor
Stephanie you know how heartbroken I was when you called to let me know and I cannot imagine how you must feel. I'm not sure if I could be as strong as you have been if I lost Sue since we've been together for almost 50 years
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. He's in a better place, missed terribly but we'll meet again

To the Lamp Family:
Words can not describe my friendship with Larry, so many good times with Larry and Stephanie it's just hard for me to remember all of them. My brother (as we always called ourselves) will be deeply missed forever, but the fond memories will never be forgotten. Never! My brother you are now at peace with no pain or worries. You and stephanie raised a beautiful family and the legacy will continue. God Bless you Larry (my brother) and thanks for all the wonderful times we got to share together. Joe Mercurio

Dear Stephanie and family,
Larry, thank you for not only being a Lamp, but a MacKinnon.
You met sister Kathy in first grade at Christ the King and were lifelong friends. You were always a part of our household and shared your life with Joe, Aggie, Doc, Kathy, Patti, David, and myself and we had so many happy times at 928. Kathy met the love of her life, John, and you, Stephanie, John, and Kathy spent a lifetime of memories together.
Stephanie, thank you for sharing Larry with the MacKinnon family. He was truly a member of our family and loved by all of us.
God bless Larry.
