I will also take very good care of your grandchildren. I miss you so very much. I love you more then anything in this world. This is not good-bye its only a short time before we meet in heaven.

Kathy & Kristie, I was shocked & am deeply saddened by the loss of your father! I know he loved you girls very much! You were the reason his world turned. I met him years ago when he & Jack Robbison came into the Kalico every day, sometimes 2 or 3 times a day for coffee & or a meal. I have met you both as well. He was always such a joy to be around. He was funny & witty. I hadn't seen much of him in recent years because he probably just enjoyed being with his wife & family, but I have thought of him often & wondered how he was doing. He was very special to so many of us. Everyone liked him!!! Now he is another one of our angels watching over us! May God comfort you during your time of grief! RIP Larry, you will be missed!

I remember you taking me fishing when i was a kid living in Florida , Hot Rodding in your truck with the tires screaming and the tail pipes howling out the back. You taught me how to cut grass & work on Cars. I learned how to keep on trying and not stop until's it done. You were a good teacher and I will miss you. Until we meet again rest in peace.

I love you daddy.

Dad, you were a loving , caring dad and grandpa. I do not know if this pain will ever heal. I know that you are with me just as you have always been. I will miss your laughter and big smile as well as your big hugs and kisses too. We will miss you greatly. Those that knew you knew that you were a family man. You loved us kids unconditionally as well as your grand kids. You are home now high upon that mountain looking down on all of us. I will continue to follow your words and advice. I love you daddy. Hugs and Kisses sent to you up there in heaven.
