I´m saddened to hear of Larry´s passing and send my heartfelt condolences to Connie, Marla and the family. I came to know Larry later in life as a participant in my class at Madonna ProActive. Though large in stature, he was a gentle man with an endearing smile and an understated wit. I will never forget him. Rest In Peace, my friend.
