Lawrence "Larry" Eichert

Mr Eichert taught and coached with great passion. I played basketball under him and learned so much about the game. I´ll never forget him or his half court behind the back basketball shot! Great Man!!

Mr Eichert was my favorite teacher in High School. His humor and faith were great. I pray for his family. Kim i am so sorry you lost your father.

I feel sorry for those not paying attention as they will have an eraser thrown at them.

A great man

Was a teacher that believed in me when I didn´t believe in myself. Met me as a freshman in high school who had just shamefully been cut from the JV team. I didn´t know he had a background in basketball at all, simply that he was a passionate science teacher. He took an interest in me and my desire to play basketball, providing guidance and support. Took me with him that year on his school trip to Kangaroo Island Australia with his lovely wife. Plenty of poignant talks and hard work the following year as a sophmore I was starting on the Varsity team. He never broadcasted his basketball roots in HK but I was grateful he decided to do so with me.

Larry was my oldest cousin on the Eichert side. We always enjoyed seeing Carol and him when they would come back from Hong Kong. Luckily my parents were able to visit them there a few times. They have both lived a full and adventurous life and I know he will be sorely missed by many. I will always remember his laugh. Rest in Peace Larry. Lynn

Larry has been in my life for 62 years. He was the first person that welcomed me to a Bible study at St Paul Lutheran and soon after became Godfather to my son Marc. His outward warmth, his faith in the Lord and his overwhelming laughter was brought into my home, and we all became one big family. My family will miss him more than words can express.
Larry, may you rest in peace.
With a crying heart, Cathy
