My late wife Mary and I were stationed with Larry and Isobel in Edzell during the early 80's. A greater shipmate, person and friend you couldn't find. A total professional yet full of life and good natured he brought a smile to everyone. My heart goes out to Isobel and family during this time of great loss!

I am thankful to have worked with such a hard working indivual who always had a smile on his face, and always a kind word to give. Larry and I would always have a good laugh whenever we saw each other, in the halls of the Office of Naval Intelligence. Larry was not only a co-worker, but also a friend. Larry, you will be sorly missed, may you rest in peace and may God bless you always. To Larry's family, may you find peace, knowing that Larry is wtih the Lord, and may God comfort you during your time of grief. May God bless you all.

I had the pleasure of working in the same building with Larry for many years. He was a great guy and his smile was contagious. Thinking of his family during this difficult time.

I worked with Larry for a number of years while he was in the military and as a ONI government employee. He was always telling jokes and took his job very serious. If you had Larry Moats as a friend, you had a friend for life. One great guy. We will all miss you friend. RIP SR. CHIEF.

I worked with Larry for many years after he retired from active duty. He was a joy to work with. He always had a big smile and brightened my day when we have a few minutes to chat.

I will never forget your smile. You were always in a witty joking mood. You took your job seriously, but always had time to chat with your friends. We were better for having known you. Rest in peace Larry. Thank you for your service.
