Larry and I were friends at EHS (Class of 1960). He was very kind and always smiling. I am glad he was at our last reunion in 2015, and he will be missed very much at our next one in 2020. I will miss just knowing he was around. All my sympathy and condolences to his wife, family and friends.

The Class of 1960 at EHS lost a great classmate. Larry and Anna helped with our class reunions and they will be missed. He was a fun classmate and the go to person for anything electronic electronic. His band Coyote Moon played at our 50th reunion. I also purchased many items from his establishment.

Larry served a fish dinner with fries all afternoon one Friday, in lima, at his restaurant. That is - till the fish quit flopping. Quite a guy. He will be missed.

I worked for Larry and Al Eversmann back in the old Meyer TV days. When the only option for television reception was the antenna on the roof. And that is what I was hired to do!
I will miss him. A grand personality, and an all around nice fellow.
