On behalf of Fannie Mae, we extend our condolences. Larry was a brilliant, dedicated, caring, driven and wonderful coworker to so many people. His tireless work with IBM and Kyndryl supporting his customers is deeply appreciated and his legacy of excellent work will live on for years to come. Larry was a "salt of the earth" kind of person. He brought a smile and a fierce can-do attitude to every customer interaction. We are so grateful for all his contributions. Larry will be missed by so many. Godspeed and peace to all of Larry´s family and loved ones.

I would like to extend my condolences to the Grusetski family. The passing of Larry left us all feeling empty. He was such a vibrant and interesting individual. He was one of a kind and driven to achieve customer perfection. He was known as "Full Throttle", and his chant "GO-GO-GO". To know him was to love him and we all loved him. May your soul rest in peace knowing your spirit will definitely live on in all of us.

What a wonderful obituary. While I feel cheated in that I never got to know some of the details of his many passions, I am grateful for the time I was able to work alongside him. I have worked with Larry for only two short years, but I knew I liked him from the very beginning. There is no doubt, from anyone who´s ever worked with Larry, that he was a dedicated worker, passionate about what he did, customer focused, and above all one of the most genuine people you will ever meet. He also had a unique sense of humor that, on occasion, had me smiling or even laughing out loud while on mute during work calls.
I was and am still deeply saddened by his untimely departure and I trust that he is now with God.
Peace be with you, your family, your friends and all who were fortunate enough to know you.

I considered Larry a friend all above being my coworker. Larry was a stickler for details and always kept me to it everyday. Larry left me with a a desire to do a great job every day. I will miss his voice and candor.
