So sorry to hear about Larry’s passing Lisa, Ricky, Glenda and Nancy you have my deepest sympathy during this time. Larry was a dear friend of mine and had great times together at Delta, playing Golf, Softball, Fishing and Hunting and numerous other activities over the more than 25 years of knowing each other. He was a good man. Larry Lee

Larry was a close friend and will be missed. I played a lot of baseball with Larry he was a great catcher and clutch hitter. I enjoyed many quail hunts with Larry and preacher bill. Larry was a great shot. I watched Lisa and Ricky grow up and I know your daddy loved you very much and will be missed. I have lost a great friend.
