My thoughts and sympathy are with you, Larry's family and friends.
As an electrical engineer at Barber Colman from 1964 to 1983, I worked with and knew Larry well. He was extremely capable at his job of calibrating and maintaining the company's electrical measuring equipment. Many times, I worked with him to solve special out of the ordinary measuring problems.
Larry was pleasant to work with and he was a very personable, friendly person.
