We have known Helen and Larry since CK high school in the 1950´s. We heard one of Larry´s first sermons. He spoke at my mothers (Judy) funeral and was very special to Ben during the Meredith´s accident and deaths of Ben´s mother, father and sister. He was a wonderful, sweet Godly man who served the Lord with great spirit. He and Helen were joined together as God intended - working, loving and serving Him throughout their lives. What a blessing to know them!

I was so sorry to hear

of Larry's passing. He was my pastor at Centerville Baptist Church for many years.
I admired his knowledge of the Bible. I learned so.much from him. My Bible is filled with notes I took from his sermons. He had such a soothing demeanor and was always prepared. He ministered to members of my family.
Helen was very musically talented. She played the piano and organ and often sang for us. Scott and Aaron were students of mine at Ceredo-Kenova High School. I am a better person for having known Larry.
