My heart aches for the Dedian family in the loss of Someone so special. Larry has been my neighbor for the past 55 years and the best neighbor that anyone could ever dream of having. Larry was special he will missed but never forgotten.
My thoughts & prayers are with the Dedian family

Larry was the best man I have ever known. If I could be half as caring, kind, nice , friendly, understanding, handsome, athletic, God-loving, knowledgeable, and hard-working, I would be delighted. Just look at his family to know the kind of man he was. I will miss him and hope to talk sports with him some day in Heaven.
