My heart feels so sad for your loss. Hope you and your loved ones are finding strength in the loads of wonderful memories. I wasn't even there and I still laugh when I think of Larry secretly wetting John's pants down and him wondering why it was taking so long for them to dry. We will all miss him! With Love, Gail

I worked as a banquet waiter with Larry Kass as the Director. Always really appreciated Larry! Very honest and straight person, who was always very fair. My husband and I met at the Royal Sonesta, and he always loved Larry's great sense of humor and so did I for sure! When I left the Royal Sonesta, I must say he was the one person I missed the most. I surely believe Larry will have his place with God.
