Janet, I just feel like hanging my head in prayer today as I just heard about Larry. Humbled by this news and I wish I could hug your neck. Encouragement to you is easy to say, but I wish I could look right into your eyes and you would feel my deepest sympathy. There are just no words. There are never enough words, now. I hope you feel the love through all of this. Rosie

I first met Larry three summers ago when I was building my home in Snead's Ferry, NC. He was warm and friendly, invited me to their home. I spent many nights enjoying their hospitality.
My condolences go out to the Rose family for their loss.
My condolences go out to Pam; Katie and Travis on the loss of their dad.

Travis, I actually met Larry in 1979 when you were in the hospital. My friend Maria Russell wanted to visit you in the hospital. I walked in your room & started gabbing & telling jokes. When I turned around, Maria wasn't there and I was so embarrassed but when Maria walked through the door & I realized what I had done, I explained who I was but you said you already figured it out. I visited Jacksonville the last 3 years and actually stopped by Rose Brothers to see Larry year before last but he had left for the day. The next year I came down to help Maria take care of Elsie Roussel during her last days so I didn't get a chance to stop back by. The moral to the story is we never know when those we care about will go from being caterpillars to butterflies so never miss an opportunity to stop by to say hi or let life get in the way of friendships. I still talk to Maria almost every week and wish I had a chance to talk to you one more time. It's been such a long time (you actually had long blonde hair when we met) and I am sure I'll see you Larry when I become a butterfly too. So know you'll be missed by your caterpillar friends, kids and wife, and we'll miss you everyday of this caterpillar life. Until then flap those baby blue wings I know you have and watch over the so many that miss you so much.

And that is how I will remember Larry; full of life and energy. I have so many good memories of Larry during our time at O.A. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Thoughts and prayers sent to all the Rose family. I've known Larry since his Onslow Academy school days.My brother William use to work for Eddie back in the 80's when he lived with me. Last time I saw Pam and Larry were at the Marina but, not the same day. Larry had come up on his jet ski the last day of the summer of pig pickin. He ate some BBQ and left. Last time I talked to him. I was saddened to hear of his passing. So much loss and I know the pain from my losses. I pray for all of the Rose Family for strength and support during this difficult time.
