Larry Klemm Obituary
Larry graduated from Warren Township High School in 1947 after serving in the U.S. Army in 1945. He enjoyed serving his community and was a volunteer fireman in Gurnee, was a past president of the Gurnee Lion's Club and was an active member of the Gurnee American Legion. In 2002 he was the Gurnee Days Honoree, a distinction he treasured.
The family will be accepting visitors on Saturday, May 13, 2017 from 10:00am to 12:00pm at Marsh Funeral Home. A chapel service will be held at the funeral home at 12:00pm followed by internment at Warren Cemetery, Gurnee, Illinois.

Dear Marty,
So sorry to hear of your dad's death. No matter how old you are, he's still Dad and you're never quite prepared.
Another pillar of old Gurnee gone. Hope you and your family can comfort each other.
