Lori and family... Larry was an amazing man! He will be greatly missed throughout the community. He always had a smile on his face that he was always giving to everyone else. That in itself is a very special gift to have. You all are in my thoughts and prayers in this time. Just know he is with the good Lord now and is just as funny as ever. Prayers to you all!

Lori & family....I am so very sad to hear of Larry's passing. Every time I saw him he put a smile on my face & made me laugh! I remember hanging out with Tom & Jan & we would always call his home phone because he had the most hikarious messages on his answering machine...way before there were cell phones!!! I know Larry is reunited with his parents, Marvin, Jan & Brody & everyone else in his family with a smile on his face & throwing out his smart a$$ jokes!!!

I remember when Larry & Lori were my landlords at one point. Then, later on in life. I have seen them around. Lori worked at the High School in Jamestown, ND, and I would always have conversation with her. I seen Larry a bunch at Walmart when I would go there. He happened to be working. I would stop and have a conservation or even just to stop and say hi. I have known them for many years. It's so sad that he is gone now. Fly high Larry! You will be missed dearly.
