May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
I couldn't have known a nicer guy , someone that was always positive and humble with a dry wit and humor whenever I saw him. So grateful I knew him.
I was a Graduate Assistant Coach with Larry in his first year at SIUE and he was instrumental in getting me my first college coaching job at Wabash Valley.
