Larry was a good guy whom I first met by playing hardball in Greenfield's Pony League in 1954 when I stayed with my Grandmother that Summer. He was a good ball player and I remember him from horsing around in his side and backyards that Summer. I remember his quarterbacking with the McClain Tigers and he was a genuine fellow and struck me as very honest and true! God Bless and wrote about his Class Reunion 2021 before seeing his obit, which truly saddened me!
