My sympathy and prayers go out to the entire family - Jeanette, Jim, Leigh, Julie, Daniel and families. Though I had not seen Larry in years, we were still cousins, and I have many happy memories of him. He had a great smile and hearty laugh. His birthday was 8 days after him, and I always reminded and joked with him that I was 8 days older. May you hold all your memories in your heart until you see him again. I will pray for strength for all.

It's okay to not be okay right now. You have each other to lean on and that is invaluable. Larry will definitely be missed but he is with you in your memories, your thoughts and your hearts until you meet again. Take care of each other, and if you need anything, just open the window and hollar! (just like the "old" days) I'm praying for you all.
