Larry was a great man. I met him when he came on his first home leave from the Navy, handsome young man. My mom and dad knew his parents. I´ll just always remember as a happy go Lucky fisherman with a smile on his face and trying make everyone comfortable if you needed anything, he would get it for you, I miss you

Craig and Kathy Huberty played cribbage with Larry every other Saturday and a "marathon" cribbage on Super Bowl Sunday for over 35 years. He always had something to say about how the games were going so we started calling them Larry tales. Craig also took Larry fishing on our boat at least once a week when he could. He was a big part of our lives and we will miss him
