Publish in a newspaper
Born on March 27, 1942 in Upper Mt. Bethel, Northampton County, he was a son of the late George and Dorothy (Lohman) Shoemaker in Upper Mt. Bethel, Northampton County. Larry was a 1961 graduate of East Stroudsburg High School and has been a resident of Monroe County for over sixty years. He served in the United States Army in Vietnam.
He retired from Tobyhanna Army Depot as a sheet metal worker after working there for over twenty years; and prior to that he worked at Tru-Matic and Banner Metals.
Larry enjoyed fishing at Hidden Lake and ice fishing in Gouldsboro, and also enjoyed watching country western tv shows. He was a past volunteer at the Lehman Township Halloween kids trail.
In addition to his wife, surviving are his daughter Margaret Muth and her husband Mike; his grandson Jacob of East Stroudsburg; his brother Blaine of Bangor; and many nieces and nephews.
There will be a private graveside service at a later date.
