After retiring he enjoyed fishing and gardening and was proud of maintaining a beautiful yard. Above all, Larry's true life's work was for God.

Diane, Wendy and family, I am sorry to hear of your loss of Larry. He was a great man. He was pleasant to work with years ago as a law enforcement officer while I was in Clerk's office and Judge's office. Always a smile on his face and gentlemanly. May the love of God surround you all during this time of your loss and sorrow. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Diane and all of Larry' family, which is as big as his heart, my condolences in the loss of your husband, father, grandfather, uncle and friend. I know this dear, dear man will be missed by all who knew him and surely by me. He had a full, very successful life for which we are all thankful. To know him was to love him. I am happy to know that he is now in Paradise where we will all join him by and by. You all have heavy hearts now but know that the heaviness will turn to joy sooner than you think when you realize where he is and will remain into eternity where we all hope to join him, in my case soon. God bless and keep you all in His loving care until we join Larry and all the Saints in God's beautiful Heaven.
