I think of Larry all the time. He was a good, loving family man. He loved to fish. In his honor and memory, his siblings hold an annual Fishing Tournament and cookout around his birthday for his family, siblings, nieces and nephews.

I was sorry to hear of Larry's passing. I have not been in touch with anyone in the Weikel family for many years, but I attended Saint Edward School with Gene (we all called him Eugene). Please accept my sincerest condolences.
