Larry proudly served his country in the US Army from 1968 to 1970. He was a Vietnam vet and a model soldier.

Larry will be greatly missed by his family and friends. His favorite things to do were hunting and fishing with his family. This summer they had several fishing trips and caught a lot of big catfish on trotlines. We are glad for those memories.

Dear Dad,
Our heart is broken, but we still carry on-
We will always hear you when nature signs it songs.
Outside is where you loved to be.
Among the animals, birds and trees.

A family man who loved us all.
A Vietnam Veteran who stood brave and tall.
Memories we will lean on a lot-
When we tell stories laughter will be our plot.

You instilled in your family, values so true-
We will carry them with us till our lives are through.
We will take care of each other as you watch from above-
Please send us your love through the call of a dove.
