To the family of Larry Turske, I am sorry it has taken me a while to write this but I was not sure if I had the right person. I knew Larry a long time ago from Parents Without Partners. He was always so helpful to those who were going through a bad time. I will never forget some of the parties he had for us at his house. He was always such a warm and caring person and so fun loving. Over the years, we have lost touch but his memory still lingers as a really great guy. I don't know the circumstances of his death so I will pray that he is at peace now and that you will smile in his memory as I will.

Michele and Jill, You girls and the grandkids were so lucky to have such a loving Dad and Grandpa.
I met Larry in 1976 at a PWP meeting and worked at NASA the same time he did. We had alot of fun boating and just hanging out. I will miss him. He was a very gentleman.
