Uncle Larry I will miss you so much! You always made me laugh and always gave me lots of encouragement. I hope you know that I loved you very much! You were my favorite Uncle and my hero.

Wow what pain losing our LITTLe brother . We smile thinking of him and then our heartbreak floods our eyes with tears. This was our Warry. the youngest of our brood. We never felt he was getting older because WE WERE. Everyone of us has a Warry story that lives in our heart. Well I have many that you would not believe. He was fun and he loved us all deeply. Even our kids adored him and loved talking to him. I am sure he is making our mama laugh and daddy shaking his head saying... Ay Larry.. . Our Warry is finally with his idol...Brothita. He emulated his big brother's life . joined the Army. and best of all took excellent care of our parents and as best he could our grandparents. So much to say but it ie hard to express all the good he had in him, What a loss for Patsy. Chels, Larry Jr. And their spouses. But the huge hurt is that his shadow Josiah and sweet Addy.... his grandchildren are hurting and confused as to where their Papo is. God help us all to cope with this great loss. We Sanchez clan are grieving deeply.
