My heart goes out to the Nizuk family and friends. Larry was truely a genuine person. I have many great memories of partying, working on cars, riding dirt bikes with Larry and spending time with Myda, Lorraine, and Lannie in the late 70's. He was very much a part of my family. Even though we took different paths his friendship had impacted my life. I remember that he rarely had a bad thing to say about someone and if he did it was true. I was always happy to run in to him every now and then. Too bad it wasn't more often. May he rest in peace.

Cousin Larry, All through our growing up, I wanted to be like you. You were a person I always looked up to, always helping the people around you any way you could, willing to give the shirt off your back if needed. I always admired you for that. When my dad passed, you told me it was time to build me a bike. It took me 20 years to finally be ready to build it. After my dad's passing, I chose to move away & lose contact with everyone close to me. It was too much to handle, all I wanted to do was forget but please know your offer touched me in a way that I will NEVER forget. Thank you for being there for me cuz, it meant a lot. Sorry I was gone for so long, I'm gonna miss you. We will meet again one day & maybe we can finally build that bike together.
Love ya Cuz...

I met Larry 20 years ago while working the parts counter at Vince's shop..He was the type of guy that no matter how life was treating him, he always had a warm smile(but more often,a wisecrack!) to brighten your day..He had the magnetice quality of being a truly NICE GUY, and that's how I'll remember him...My condolences to his family and friends..See ya in the wind,Larry!! Respectfully, The Kid.

I was shocked to hear of Larry's passing. I have very fond memories of working with him. I will truly miss the "drive-bys" and talks we had over the years. I want to give his family my deepest sympathy.

Larry,

You will be missed. I met you when I was 18 and you got me a bartending job. You came out in the pouring rain to help me with a car that wouldn't start. I was around for the birth of Larry and will miss you as will so many others. You have no idea how many peoples lives you affected with your charms.

Rest well
