My thoughts and prayers go out to all of Larry's family and friends. Although I was not around Larry as much, I know he was a swell person just from the outpooring of love I have seen for him over this last 6 months and two of the sweetest ladies I have ever met are Nona and Irene, so I know he had the best mentors growing up a person could ever ask for. May the many happy memories help ease the pain in the coming days and weeks ahead for all the family and friends.
