"Memories never fade". While reading The Progress-Index on-line I saw Larry's obituary, now I haven't seen Larry in over 45 years, but we were on the same baseball team on the Heights called the Hawks, along with Tony Robinson, The White Brothers, Alonzo Taylor, Andrew White, Mark Smith, C.Johnson, we were sort of like the Bad News Bears during that time, The Knights team was the number one team, I smiled, that was a memory I kept all this time. To the family of Larry, my sincere condolences, and soon you will have memories that will make you smile.Peace.
