So sorry to hear of Larry's passing. We were good friends back in the1960s when we were young. I haven't seen him for many years but a few days ago I was thinking about the good times we all had as a group of friends. Almost all the group is gone now but the memories remain. He was always such a nice person. My condolences to his family.
