Larry was a great guy to work with and he gave me much good advice over the years.My only complaint after working and playing basketball with Larry was,"he never passed the ball to me". Maybe that was because,he was a much better player.Larry, you will be missed,but never forgotten. Peace,love and faith to your family.
