It's been another year of missing you. It's been a blessing to spend time with my niece and share our favorite Larry memories. Your grandson LOVES to go fast and it's a heartwarming reminder that you're always with me.

I can't believe it's been 9 years since I got to see your smile and be wrapped in your arms for a tight hug. I still miss you everyday and think of you so often. I wish we had more pictures together.

You are so missed. I'm getting married in May and would trade anything for you to be there to walk me down the aisle. I know you'd love Robert and wish he got to meet you. The last note I ever got from you said "I'm so proud of you, " and I am thankful for that every day of my life.

Larry and my friendship began in 1960 while attending Military School in San Marcos. We lost tract of each other over the years.
When I moved to Austin in 1996, I began trying to reconnect with my friend..
Larry was a character, had a huge heart and loved God...
We all miss him!
