Larry Leva Obituary
Larry Leva passed away April 13, 2024, ten days after his 93rd birthday. He was married to Bette Solomon for over 50 years until her passing in 2013.
An amazing father to 3 sons. His sons’ friends would often come to their house and play ping pong, pool, or just hang out at the house. They all loved being around Larry and he felt the same.

Larry was a kind soul with a wonderful disposition. He loved his wife, Bette, Scotch and Cigars.
