I wanted to express deepest sympathies and condolences from Joyce and myself. We both had great respect for Larry's background and the manner in which he conducted himself in all ways while living, serving and volunteering in Kidder Township. Those attributes are often in short supply today and will surely be missed by Joyce and I as well as the community of Lake Harmony. Larry was a persistent, tenacious supporter of what makes Lake Harmony what it is and will be well remembered in this small community daily as we feel like we lost a family member too. God be with you.
