I am so very sorry to hear of Larry's passing. He was such an amazing, gentle soul who touched a lot of lives, including mine. I remember sitting down @ the fire house, chatting with him... and seeing him down @ the hospital, or just walking his pupper around town.
He will be missed! All my love, thoughts & prayers are with you all!!
