Dear Carol and family,
Joe and I are so very sorry that Larry has passed. We knew him briefly from the visits to Baltimore but felt so drawn to his smile and kind ways. It was obvious to us that family and home were very important to him.Your home and garden reflected warm, loving people live there.

We will never forget the beautiful luncheon you and Larry prepared on our first visit to your home.

You and your family are in our prayers.

Blessings always
