Larry Shackelford (75), of Casa Grande, Arizona, passed away peacefully in his home on November 5, 2025.
Larry was a US Army Veteran and served in Vietnam. He also served in the US Army National Guard in Minnesota for several years. He had a fun loving heart and made many friends throughout his life. He often befriended the people who were the underdogs in their lives and gave them true sense of belonging.
He is survived by his loving family, wife Kim, daughters Shannon (Sam) Ponce, Sheri (Matt) Broad, Roxi (Jeff) Anderson. Grandchildren Hunter and Mandy Broad, Sophia and Sabrina Ponce, and Tru, Truxton and Tenlee Anderson. We all will miss you greatly.
A Celebration of Life to honor Larry will be on December 2, 2025, 2 PM at the Mission Royale Recreation Center, Casa Grande.
