We met Larry and Mary in the spring of 2022, when we purchased the house next door to them. They both welcomed us with open arms and hearts. We enjoyed many mornings of coffee together and some fun evenings on the deck filled with laughter and stories of their Canadian adventures at the cabin. His gentle teasing of Mary and her, exasperated, "Babes." will be missed. We wish we had known him longer. Our hearts go out to you, Mary and the entire family. May the peace of Christ Jesus dwell in you today, tomorrow and all through the coming years. Blessings of love, peace and comfort to each of you. Craig and Kelly Reed
