Larry Paul was the best bestfriend I could have ever asked for. From the very first time I met him when we were teenagers and even now, I always wanted to be just like him. He was always there when I needed help, and he never asked for anything in return. I can't put in to words what he has meant to me. He was my friend, and a hero to me. No one can ever replace him, or ever replace what he has meant not only to me, but to everyone he has known.. I will miss you my friend.

Larry Paul was one of my closest and best friend in the world and he was my mentor. i always strived to anyting he asked me to do. Work related or personal. He taught me to be the best at anything i ever did and never back down from a challenge. Always stands tall and be proud. I considered Larry as a big brother. He took me under his wing and even though he would never admit it, i think he enjoyed it. Jennifer, Tonya, Katie and Brandon my prayers are with yall. I hope and pray God will help yall though this. Larry you are a man that i personly have looked up to and will always remeber what you taught me about life and work. and will remeber you forever!

Allthough I haven't talked to or seen Larry in several Years, he is one of those guys you don't forget and comes up in conversations for years. My step daughter still talks about Larry on a Mud run several years ago and how crazy he was. You could call him at 2 in the morning and tell him you were stuck in the mud and he would show up and probably destroy his truck trying to get you out!! He was a good friend and will be missed.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. I worked with Larry at film transit for several years. we got along very well because we shared the love of the outdoors.Larry in beaver and Nutria and Raccoon to work and several time, I would take them and BBQ them and we would have a big dinner at work. although I only saw Larry a couple of times after that it was on the lake or the river doing what he loved to do. I will always remember the the good time we shared at work. May God bless all his family in the time of loss.
