I have kept Larry in my prayer book and think of him often. I lived on Ridge Park until a few years ago. I only knew of him through the young people in the neighborhood but his life is remembered, as is his family and their love for him.

Larry.. you don't know how big of an impact you made on everyone's life.. I remember I met you in 5th grade and had the biggggest crush on you! ..like all the other girls too.. Language was never everrr the same without you.. Your laugh made everyones' day brighter.. I miss it so much.. I remember when you made fun on my snowboots.. i remember the exact conversation and I think of you everytime I put them on.. "Nice boots" I loved when you would laugh at Ben's voices because then everyone else would laugh.. You didn't deserve this but at least you're in a better place.. I love you and I'm missing you more each day..

Dear Family,
I can't believe a whole year has past. I continue to pray for all of you. I will always be thankful that Larry was a part of our lives, and that Jordan and him were friends. And now I'm so grateful that Nick and Andy are roommates. Pat and Larry-you certainly have some great kids as I know you are well aware. I hope this Christmas season you will continue to feel the comfort and love that surround you. I know that God is at work here even though we don't always understand His ways. I send you all my love and blessings.

Pat and Larry,
My thoughts and prayers are with you, it is hard to believe it has been a year since little Larry was taken to heaven. We never know the reason why, but we do know that Larry is safe in the kingdom of heaven. God Bless you and your family, we are here for you if you need to talk. We love you,
Rod, Candy and Everett

Lar:
Well I just got back from Austin, I played in a state qualifying tournament and played about the worst i have played in about a month. . it was not fun. At some point during the round i glanced down at my towel, the ones we got made in honor of you, and i just started thinking about all the golf times you, Andy and I spent together: the trip to Blackhorse (unforgetable), the trip to see Neil, and the number of times at The Stone. After that i wasnt mad, i was enjoying to play bad golf. But i just wanted to write and say hey and that i miss you man. Save me a tee time when i come and see ya because its just a TEMPORARY GOODBYE!

Larry! I was thinking about your contagous smiler this morning as i put on my Lil' Larry shirt and couldn't help but wonder how happy you are right now in heaven. We miss you soo much and not a day goes by that i don't think of you and your stupid jokes or sweet smile. I know you are looking down at us now laughing at us and thats what gets us through the day. (To the Clancy Family) You raised a wonderful son- he was always so funny. You are the ones who taught him to care and to pick people up when they where down and for that we can not thank you enough. We love you Larry and you will never bye forgotten- see you soon... this is just a temporary good-bye

Hey larry we all miss you down here. I can't believe that you are gone, but i know you are in a better place. I will never forget they way you smiled, laughed, or made fun of chris ballou. The numerous poker games you took everyone's money in, or the times that we just hung out. Just always remember that "This is an honors class... and the only honorable is nothing" from Mr. Doud's class with me you, and jordan. I'll never forget buddy, I now noticied that i lost a great friend but i also gained an angel. This is just a temporary goodbye and i will see you soon Lar Bear.

I remember in the 5th grade talent show how me you andrew jacob and alex all dressed up like spice girls, and lip singed their song. That night was in december was so hard to actually think that i had lost a good friend, but over these 2 months I reolized that I gained an angle. Mr and mrs clancy my prayers are with you and you to andy, just remember that this is a Temporary Goodbye. love and miss you larry

Im sorry for writing in here so late but i just got my computer working.I didnt know Larry personally but he was in a few of my classes at Aragon. Last year was my first year at Aragon and i was so nervous but when i walked into my advisory class i saw a boy (isoon learned was Larry) he had the biggest smile on his face and it comforted me in a way.. Larry was the sweetest guy that i have ever met i never saw him without a smile on his face. The day i heard about the loss i was with 3 friends and we were all in shock i just wanted to get home and my heart hurt soo bad i had never felt that kind of pain before i have never known anyone that died before and when i got home i just started crying and told my mom what happened as the news came on and they showed the accident i wanted to throw up i felt such pain i wish i would have been at the funeral or gone to the viewing but i was out of town i never even got to see the flowers on the street.. but my mom drove me by there later and my eyes filled with tears and i couldnt breathe i can not even begin to imagine how your family feels or the people who were close to Larry but i do know that you did an AMAZING job raising your son.. He will make a PERFECT angel God is lucky to have him. WE will never know why things happen but they happen for reasons and this one i will never understand. Im extremely sorry for your loss and i miss seeing Larry get so excited when he would win while playing SILENT BALL in Mr. Cooneys advisory. Your family is in my prayers and im glad i got the chance to meet your son before he became an angel in heaven above..he definatly earned his wings!
February 15, 2005
Larry, touched many lives in ways that will be never be forgotton. I know he touched mine. He showed that no matter what, always smile, and he did.No matter what larry was always smiling.If you were every sad,mad, or what have it once you saw Larry, you forgot what it was that was on your mind and suddleny a smile came to your face. I dont know why this happend, but i do that everything happens for a reason. I know God has a master plan and in someway this needed to happen, that doesnt sound pleasant i know,and i dont want to say it..but that is how i look at it. Everytime i look through my old year books, and see his face i want to cry because i miss Larry so much, but then i start to smile knowing that i will someday see him again. All i can say is that heaven gained an AWESOME person!! Although, he has left us from earth we know that we will get to see him again and that 'this is only a tempoary goodbye'We know that he is looking down here wanting us to be happy, so lets try and get through this for him.. it isnt easy what so ever, but dwelling will only make it worse. Larry Clancy you were will be forever loved and missed! RIP we love you!!
To The Clancy Family:
My prayers go out to you and your family. I cant imagine how rough of a time it is for you all right now. We will all miss Larry, but most of you will..You are his family and i dont know how you are getting through this, but May God Bless You and your family is in my prayers every night.
*this is just a tempoary good-bye*

Wow.. i dont even know where to begin..Well, the day i found out about his death i didnt know what to think. I heard from Andrew on the internet along with Martain. I was reading Andrews profile and thinking no, no not larry.. and then i found out and just lost it.. I didnt know why this happened to such a wonderful person... He had so many things going for him and so many ppl that loved him.. His job here i dont think was done...But he will be forever in my heart and one day i'll get to see him again, but until then all i have are the memories and pics. to hold on to but for right now, that is enough knowing that i will again see Larry again someday.
Larry and i along with tons of other people went to Lowery together.I remeber sitting in class with Larry doing all the stupid things i did and he would just laugh at me... He always found a way to bring a smile to my face. Along with nicole i remeber also having a HUGE crush on larry (lol)but honstly how can you not.?! he always brought smiles to peoples face and made every bad thing have a great outcome. He was such an uplifting person!! I remeber Nicole, Larry, Andy and i would hang out at Nicoles and jump on the trampoline and stuff and man there were some of the best days of my life! I loved to be around Larry..He was such a postive person. Even though, it has been a while this still isn't real to me..Everytime, i go to houston to visit, i think hey ya'll lets go visit Larry and then suddleny i remember he is no longer with us and man..that isnt a good feeling.. I just dont know, there are really no words to desceribe this loss.
To The Clancy Family:
I am so sorry. I dont know how you are dealing with it, but i hope you are doing ok. Ya'll are in my prayers each and every night.

Dear Pat,
I've had the email from Virgil with instructions to access this guest book(forwarded to me by Pauletta), on my desk for about a month. I couldn't think of the right words, but I realize there are no right words. All I can say is I think of you often and pray that God gives you understanding and peace until you meet your baby again in heaven. Stay strong. Hugs,
Ana

LaRrY cLaNcY! Sorry this is posted so late... Wow it will be two months on Wednesday but it feels like it's been eternity. You and your smile has been left as a trademark with all of your friends and family and that's how we all think of you. When someone smiles, it makes me think, "Larry!" You were the funniest guy I knew.. whether it was making fun of me and Amanda for being short or rolling your eyes at me when I tried to tell you a stupid joke! The other day Sarah Chattfield told me everytime she would bring me up on the bus, you would just roll your eyes and start laugihng.. you were the greatest and I will never forget you.. (to the Clancy's) Y'all are in my prayers and will continue. Your family has been so strong throughout this time and it's amazing how y'all are pulling through with it. May God be with you. SeE yA SoOn LaR BeaR

I read this website regularly and find such comfort reading the entries from all those who miss Little Larry. Your kind words and support mean more than you will ever know. The Clancy family is hanging in there and taking one day at a time. Not a minute goes by that we do not miss our Lt Lar but we know he is watching over us in heaven.
Matt I am so pleased to hear of your success and look forward to watching your hair grow back!

To The Clancy Family,
I'm not sure if you remember me, but this is Nicole Cannady one of Larry's friends. I moved to Atlanta, Georgia about a year ago leaving all my friends (including Larry) behind. On the night of December 16th i got a phone call that i will NEVER forget. It was one of my friends from Houston who shared the news with me.
I moved to Houston in the 4th grade not knowing a single soul. But before I could even realize I was friendless, Larry became a HUGE part of my life. I remember I had the biggest crush on him for what seemed like eternity. Finally one day i somehow got him to notice me, and i guess you could say we became "boyfriend and girlfriend". At that moment it was the greatest thing that had ever happend to me. I used to go sit by the front window just waitng to see if Larry was gonna pass by my house on his bike going to Andrew's house every day after school. I also would invite Larry to all of my birthday parties and he would always be there. He even came to my "Going Away" party last February before I moved. I remember he was always the life of my parties! He made everyone laugh (including my parents).
I could go on and on about all the fun times that I had with Larry but that would take up a WHOLE lot of space. My parents and I loved Larry with all of our hearts and we will never ever forget all the great memories with him. Your family is in our prayers throughout night and day. May God be with you through this time.

dear mrs. pat and mr. larry,
From ages 1-10 me and larry did almost everything together. Before I started elementry school my day included looking out the window waiting until larry's bus pulled up to drop him off so we could go to bear creek park. As we grew up Kristine, Andy, Larry, and I did everything together. There was always someone there, wheather it was Andy or Larry. I wish Larry and I hadn't grown apart so much. But I have no doubt Larry had memories of us together. And yall, Dana and Andy are in my prayers night and day. You were my second family and I thank you so much and tell Dana that I am always here for her as a sister and a friend and tell her to call whenever she wants, I'll find time.

Hi Larry, Sr and family,
This is Dede from David's Cycles. It was another sleepless night for me and about 1 a.m. I turned on the TV. This was quite unusually as I usually do crossword puzzles quietly. They were repeating the evening news and mentioned Larry and his accident. My heart stopped. I knew that I knew you and Larry, Jr from the many times you visited our shop. I wish I could remember all my customer, but I dont. But I do remember you, and your son, and the last time I saw the two of you. It was just a brief mention of how your son had grown.
Larry and Patricia the reason I go into so much detail is because I believe God does things for a reason, just as he had me turn on the TV tonight so that I could write you. Your son has left his mark on so many people. As hard as it is to let go, just know that it is just for a little while. I know that God had great plans for your son and that Larry Jr accomplished them well.
I have to also say that I believe that my God is a good God. I say this after having to say goodbye to my son, Richie, 10 years ago. He was 17.
I have 'TOLD' my Richie to look after your Larry. (Yes, I still 'mother' Richie, even though hes in heaven.) I have asked, thru prayer, that you and your family maintain strength and faith thru this very, very difficult time. Please, know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers, not just today but for a long time to come. Sincerely, Dede LaRochelle

There are way to many great things to say about Larry. There's to many great memories to share, but i will never forget any of them. Larry was my best friend since first grade ... and my first crush lol ... I will always miss his smile and his contagious laugh. I remeber in second grade he sat at my table and he kept laughing, so i started to laugh for no reason and my teacher told me to be quiet. Then, a few seconds later Larry started to laugh at me for getting in trouble and the way he smiled made me laugh so hard and at that time, my teacher told me to come to the front and she signed my green card for the first time. If it had been anyone else i would have been so mad, but since it was Larry with that silly grin on his face i couldnt help but laugh more. I loved everything about Larry ... he was the person i could talk to and he was the one to make me feel better. I never saw Larry without a smile on his face, or that silly grin he always had. Everyday after 5th period i would see him and i would run and jump on his back and he would always make fun of me for it ... Everyone will miss him so much because he was everyones best friend. No one ever said anything bad about him, because there was only good things to say. If Larry was in a room then everyone was happy. i know i will see Larry again in Heaven and that comforts me ... (To the Clancy family) i am praying for y'all everyday and i cant imagine what y'all are going through ... You raised a wonderful son and we will all miss him dearly . One day you will see him again and this is just a temporary goodbye. God Bless
January 13, 2005
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Clancy, as Larry's birthday came I offered up extra prayers. I know it was a special day, a hard day. Your son touched the lives of so many, leaving each one a message.... smile and the world smiles with you. In the days after Larry's death my son was so sad, and lost, without his friend. I reminded him of what he always told me about Larry " he was the funniest guy ever, he could always make you laugh!" Laughter is a wonderful gift, and Larry shared it with everyone he met. Our children are lucky to have known such a good friend. We pray for you everyday. God bless, and peace be with you.

Hey Larry Happy Birthday! I hope your having fun up in heaven. We all miss you soo much. Its hard to believe that we will never get to hear your laugh down the halls at school or hear you make fun of one of us when we did something stupid. You were the most down to earth kid i ever met. I only have known you since aragon, but all those years i have gottin to know you have been some of the greatest years of my life. You had the greatest personality any kid could have. We all love and miss you soo much larry and i can't wait to see you again. Save me a spot up there in heaven for me i love you. This Is Just A Temporary Goodbye

Lar, I'm going to miss giving you a big ole kiss today for your 15th birthday. I'm going to miss watching you turn red when they sing to you at Willie's for your birthday or when you laugh so hard when they put whipped cream on your nose at Tio Chucho's on your birthday. I'm NEVER going to forget that beautiful smile, that hilarious personality and that you loved us and we loved you.
You are incredibly happy and content right now and that helps us all get through the days without you. You buddies all miss you so much, but how cool it is that you are with Jesus and we all know it. Thanks for the great memories. You will never be forgotten. Thanks for the song, guys, because this really is just a "temporary goodbye." I love you so much always, Lar Bear - Ms. Sandy

Although I never had the pleasure of knowing little Larry personally, I knew him through working with his mother, Pat, for a number of years. Life is so prescious that sometimes we get caught up in thinking we will have forever and when someone so young and full of life as Little Larry was is taken, we struggle to understand why now. That answer will never come, at least not one we can fully understand. Another Angel was needed and who better to fulfill the job than Little Larry - the one who was always smiling and who is now smiling down on all of us.

Larry was one of the greatest guys you'd ever meet in your life. I don't think I ever saw him without a smile on his face or him laughing at something or someone, and that is what I will remember him for most. Larry and I have been best friends for the past 4 years and it's going to be hard for all of us not seeing him at school or hanging out with him anymore. I know I will see Larry again in Heaven and for me that makes dying alot less scary. He had the best personality. He could always cheer me up when I was sad. All he had to do was smile and I would feel better and start laughing. I could talk to him about anything and I knew he wouldn't judge me for it. To the Clancy family..I'm so sorry for your loss and I know how hard this is on you. My Dad passed away a few years ago so I know what it's like to loose a family member who was so close and dear to you. I pray for your family everyday.

Larry Clancy or to many known as Lar Bear, lil Larry or Larry the Blueberry was one of my best friends. Actually he was everyone's best friend and that is what made him so cool. Whenever he walked into a room we all had to smile or laugh because he always had a huge smile on and the most contagious laugh with him. I really miss walking down the hall between third and fourth period at school and hearing him yell my name and say HEY! while doing his funny duck walk. I recently broke my leg falling down the stairs, and I can almost hear him laughing at me. If Larry laughed at you because you did something stupid, as I have, you couldn't take it personal because he was just trying to make the worst situations seem better, or even funny! I know that we are all hurting because we all lost a best friend, but we are lucky that we had him while we did and that we got to see him live his life to the fullest. He had the best personality and if I have learned anything from Larry it is to always have a smile on your face! I miss Larry so much and we all know that he was an amazingly special person that can never be forgotten. I can't wait to see Larry in Heaven again one day so that I can hear his contagious laugh and see his awesome smile.

Larry was one of my friends who i have known for forever now. I went to lowery and aragon with him. He was one of those people that walked into the room and made everyone smile. I will never forget him. Especially his laugh! He would laugh and every one would just start cracking up! He was such a wonderful person and would never do anything to hurt anyone. You all did a WoNdErFuL job raising him. He will always be missed and never forgotten. I love you guys and you are in my prayers. With lots of love, Erica Williams

With time, and different schools, Emily and Andy lost touch. However, upon hearing of your loss of Larry, Melissa and I send our prayers and support to your entire family.

Dear Larry,
It has been many years since we last saw each other but wanted you to know how saddened I was to read about your son. I lost a sister at a young age so i know the pain your family is going through. I consoled myself by trying to remember all the good things my sister and I shared and all the crazy thing we did together. A friend who lost a child at the age of 4 came to understand that God did not take her child for any other reason that this is exacvtly how long God allowed her child to live. I know that is not a consoling thought but perhaps one day you'll understand the thought. May God bless you today and everyday.

What a cutie.
Again, I am so sorry for your loss. May God bless you all and may He help you through this very sad time.

Dear Clancy Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Larry was an absolutely wonderful, caring person, words cannot begin to describe him. I went to school with him at Aragon and I have since moved on to Katy High School. He was so funny and could make you laugh about everything. He was a good friend too. I will really miss him. My prayers and love are with you and your family during this time.

I didnt know Larry that well, except that he was in one of my 7th grade classes. But i do remember him always laughing with his friends in the hall way, and having a good time. The times i did talk to him he was always very nice. My Prayers are with His Family, and Friends. I cant imagine being in their position, and im truley sorry.
Everyone might have had a short time with Larry here on earth, but when you meet him again in heaven, you will be with him eternally.
Godbless...

I am a mother of two boys, I cannot imagine your pain. Judging by everyone's entries, you must have raised a fine young boy. It is evident he touched a lot of lives. No one ever knows why things occur the way they do...it is all a part of some master plan. God is good and he will give you and your family the strength to get through your loss.
God Bless You~

Bless you all.

Dear Clancy Family,
Words can not express the sorrow and saddness that we all feel for your family at this time. Larry was a student everyone knew and loved. He captured ALL with his friendly attitude and never-ending smile. Your family is in my prayers throughout this difficult time, as well as, the group of young boys and girls who are having to say goodbye to such a great friend. I am so proud of you all! Always remember, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he resuces those who are crushed in spirit." Psalm 34:18

Pat, Larry, Andy, and Dana Marie -
I love you guys so much. I have so many memories from when I was little where I played with Andy and Larry. My fondest memory would have to be when LiL Larry tried to tag me and I ran into the car! And then Andy said "Does she have ketchup in her hair?" and Lil Larry said, "No, it's mustard!"
I could never begin to imagine the sorrow and grief you are going through. We all love you so much.
Lil Larry will always have a place in my heart.
