Larry was my buddy I was honored to care for him and his brother Ed as we’ll
We loved Larry and his fun loving wit. Larry will be missed. Love hug and prayers to Larry’s family and friends.
Love your buddy Deborah Mchenry.
We were blessed to know Larry. He was a wonderful grandfather to Dalton and Mateo. His grandsons will carry the family traits into the future. GOD bless this family in their time of need.
Larry was a great patriot of the country and provided a great service to the community.
Always had something positive to say, and was very professional and cared about the fine details of his work.
He was a master craftsmen with shoes or anything with leather. I always enjoyed talking with him and learning something new from his vast experience. He will be missed but never forgotten.
So very to sorry to hear about your Dad what a sweet sweet man…
