Surrounded by his family, Larry Neil Devine, 67, passed away peacefully at his home on May 3, 2025. Larry was born in Washington on April 19, 1958, the son of Elmer and JoElla (Leonard) Devine. He married Greta (Way) Devine and for the next forty-three years, they made a happy home for themselves and their daughters. Greta now has many cherished memories.
Larry found joy whenever he could - even while fighting his body's decline over the last twenty-five years. He loved fishing and being outdoors. Larry was also a fan of country music, and with his mischievous spirit, was known to stir up a little trouble now and then. Most of all, Larry was a devoted husband and father. He treasured the time he spent with his family.
Those who now mourn Larry's passing include his devoted wife, Greta Devine; his two daughters: April (Paul Woods) Devine of Denver, Colorado, and Lacy Devine of Washington. He also leaves four siblings: Mike (Sherry) Devine, Sandy (Gary) Williams, David (Ingrid) Devine, Debbie (Chad Hiers) Mullen, and his mother-in-law, Nina Way.
In his lifetime, Larry grieved the passing of his parents, JoElla Nolley and Elmer Devine, and his father-in-law, Paul Way.
Graveside services for Larry Devine will be planned for a later date.
