Larry’s favorite quote was “I try to treat everybody like I want to be treated” which is The Golden Rule.

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love His appearing.

II Timothy 4:7-8 (KJV)
