I found out about Larry's passing from a voice Mail from Mike Farnsworth. We all went our different ways when Jeffrey was bought out, but rarely was there a day gone by that I didn't think of Larry and the other close friends that we shared. My family and I will remember him always for he brightened up our lives. All my condolences to Michelle and the rest of the family
