Karen and family
Tom and I send our condolences on Larry's passing.
I have good memories of Larry taking the time to show me around the Greenwich Museum. He invited me over his home to see his personal memorabilia. He even made me a DVD of the pictures of old Greenwich. I will miss my friend.

Karen and family sorry for your loss, and to the Greenwich Historical Society
we have lost another member who really cared about the history of Greenwich, If not for Larry and Clark Hunter we would not have a museum, or as much history to explore in the museum. So, to you Larry I say thank you. Chuck Magill a true friend.
