Lorens Larry Dunnett

This was a customer I had in Kanawha City at the insurance office a few years ago. I had always wondered about him since I left, and wondered how he was. He had been in remission from cancer. When he came in, we would always sit and talk forever it seemed like. His smile was so awesome and I felt this connection like he could've been my grandparent or something. His personality was one you'd just fall in love with instantly. When I came in contact with my birth father, he would listen to me talk, share his own experiences, and sometimes he would just sit and cry with me. After I left KC and went to Dunbar in 2012, I never saw him again. I wanted to write him a letter or call him up and see how he was doing but I never did. I thought about him a lot. He lived right in Diamond area, so I always hoped I'd run into him in the store or something and I could give him a big hug again. I searched on Facebook this morning to see if maybe he'd finally gotten one, but instead I found his obituary. I really feel as though a close friend or family member has died. Its crazy when someone can make such a huge impact on your life. Every day when he left me he would say, "Love you in the Lord, baby, I'll see you later." I know for a fact he is in Heaven with Jesus.

I will miss my cousin Lorens. We haven't seen much of each other over the past years, but would periodically talk on the phone & if you know Lorens the man could yak! And we would yak & laugh & cry depending on what was going on in our lives. My heart hurts for Annette's & our family's loss. Love you all, Steffie

Deepest sympathy to all of you. Sorry we cannot be there in person but know you are all in our thoughts and prayers. Lorens maybe gone but his memories will always be with us.

Tom and family, So very sorry for your loss. May God wrap his loving arms around you in this time of need. Love and prayers

Annette, Myself and David are so sorry to hear about Larry's passing. He married us 22 years ago in your front yard. Sending love and prayers

I will never forget Larry's friendship and how much he meant to my dad. He was strong, kind and full of love for the Lord. He is now celebrating what we often talked about! Glory to God!

ANNETTE,
MAY GOD BE WITH YOU AND COMFORT YOUR BROKEN HEART.
LARRY WAS A TRUE MAN OF GOD AND HE WAS A JOY TO BE WITH AND TO WORSHIP WITH HIM.
IF YOU NEED ANYTHING, WE WILL ALWAYS BE HERE FOR YOU. YOU WILL REMAIN IN OUR PRAYERS.

I will forever be thankful that God placed Larry in my life, what a Blessing he has been in my life. I could be feeling down, but just let Larry come around and just being in his presents you could feel his love for you and the Lord's presents. I will miss you and remember the joy you gave. RIP my sweet friend. We love you but you knew that.

So sorry to hear of Larry's passing. He was a wonderful man with a beautiful laugh! We are so thankful that our paths crossed in this lifetime. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
