Dear Alice and the Henderson family,

It was not until today that I heard about Larry's passing and I am both shocked and very saddened. I served with Larry at PERC and we knew each other for decades via the labor community, as I was a union leader and now labor attorney. I always looked forward to running into Larry at events or conferences. He was a truly joyful, good, and caring person. My deepest condolences to you and your entire family.

Dear Henderson Family, It's been a very long time since we've seen each other but nevertheless the loss of a son, brother, father is a terrible loss. My heart goes out to you all in sympathy and in caring. I didn't know Larry that well but I knew most of "The Hendersons" (as well as some "significant others") pretty well and you are a great family. With condolences, Mary Hnedak Thompson.

Alice,Laura, Samantha & other Henderson family members,

Our thoughts & prayers are with you all during these most difficult times. Larry will always hold a special place in our hearts too...nothing was more exciting than to see Larry working the soccer field at Laura's soccer games...this is where our friendships blossomed. While years fly by more quickly than we realize, You have all remained in our thoughts. Hold tight to those wonderful memories and he will always be right by your side.
Love always,
Kevin & Donna McVey

Larry was a very kind man. He fought hard and he is probably enjoying a good scotch in heaven. Our Livestrong group will miss him dearly! :(

My sincerest condolences to the family of Larry. We worked together on many campaigns and when he was at the County and I was at the Vocational School. Later, we were fellow arbitrators and always spent long hours together at the Labor Law Section's Christmas Party. Larry was an incredible caring person and skilled arbitrator. He was a prince among men and Angelica and I will greatly miss him.

Dear Alice, Laura, and Samantha,
Our hearts are breaking.... Larry's kindness and goodness brought out the best in us, and his smile lit up the world. How we loved him. And how we shall miss him. Sending you, and all the Hendersons and Condrens, love and more love. We will carry dear Larry in our hearts forever.

Already missing Larry's greeting from his driveway every time I opened the front door. Whether getting ready to walk Ranger, tending to his yard or washing his beloved Hondas, he was always there with a cheerful greeting and a smile. You'll be missed at the "Woodside Cafe", our dear friend and neighbor.
