I have known Larry since 1999, the year Phillip & I moved into the park. We purchased the currant managers home and was donated their job as well. Through the years, Larry helped us with the well water. After Phillip passed away in 2009, he has been a "BIG" help to me with many other chores around the park. I will truly miss him and his help. He was always eager to help me when I called on him. And I also have many fond memories. My prayers will be with the family for this difficult time.

My condolences to friends and family. I worked with Larry over 35 years ago at my fathers company at the Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport. He has also been my father-in-law for the past couple of years. I will always have fond memories of Larry. He was a Kind-hearted, funny, loving and caring person. He will be greatly missed. I pray for the family to find peace and comfort during this difficult time.
