Larry & I became great friends after working together in the mid 80s. We all @ the store went out 2 eat & drink together. He was my big brother. Took care of me, drove me, & listen 2 me. I hope l showed him as much love as he showed me. I am so sorry 2 his kids. I just found his obituary on Google today. He was such a great friend & a great man. I will miss him dearly.
