Dear Pat: I was shocked and so saddened to hear of Larry's passing. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this very difficult time. Larry is now free from the sufferings of this life and is in Heaven with our Blessed Lord. Although you will miss him more than words can say, as believers, we know that we will be reunited with our loved ones in Heaven someday. Larry was a man of faith and touched the lives of many. I have thought of you often over these many years and am so thankful for the friendship and memories we share from so many years ago. I will continue to pray that God comforts you in your loss. God bless you and your family.

Dear Pat:
This candle surely symbolizes what Larry was....a light to the world! He was quite the man...always there with an open heart and hand for those in need. Most of all he was courageous and set an example of what a true suffering servant should be. He will be missed in this world but blessed in heaven! We are sure he is still watching over his family with love and devotion. Our sorrow for your loss is true and deeply felt. With love, Mary and Paul Mantica
