To the children of Larry and Joyce:

I was so sorry to read of the passing of Larry and also to learn that Joyce had passed before him. They were a wonderful couple who lived upstairs over us on Warren Ave. in Ea. Prov, in the late 50's. I remember becoming fast friends with Larry's sister when they came to visit from Indiana. Larry and Joyce had their 1st born son and later had a set of twins if I remember right. I have wonderful memories of them as a young couple just starting out. My deepest sympathy for your loss.

To Larry's family. I worked in the hospital sub basement with Larry for twenty years, I have never met a more honest and hard working man, I learned a lot from Larry as a tradesman. His knowledge and intelligence were inpressive to say the least. He will be missed by all who knew him. It was an honor just to have met such a man. David R, Miner. RIH HVAC Operating Engineer..
