Rose and the family,
Larry was a great friend to our family. Beyond helping us all through numerous household emergencies, he was my dad's golfing partner, our friend and simply simply a great man. I will treasure the rounds of golf we played and the time my husband and I got to spend with him. Larry will be very much missed. Find comfort in knowing he is in a place where he can safely watch over everyone, and never miss a two foot putt.
