Larry was born on December 3, 1957, to Kenneth and Jeanette (Stoddard) Covington in Graham, Texas. He enjoyed playing basketball and was an All-District-All Area Post at Henrietta High School, Class of 1976. He served our country in the Army, completing his basic training in Fort Dix, New Jersey in November 1976 and was stationed in Germany.

Larry met the love of his life, Dana, in 1989 and they made Fort Worth their home where they raised their two sons. He worked as an industrial roofer for many years then worked the past 15 years as a custodian for Lake Church Baptist Church in Arlington, Texas until he retired in July 2025. He enjoyed watching the Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Mavericks, and old westerns in his spare time. His last wish was to come back home to Henrietta, even after being away for over 30 years, Henrietta was still home. That wish was honored and he was surrounded by his family and friends during the time of his illness. Larry always had the personality to keep the family entertained while we were together, he will be very much missed.

He was preceded in death by his wife Dana Bollier, Father Kenneth Covington, sister Carla Stegall, niece Jessica Stegall.
