We are surprised and extremely saddened to just learn of Larry, Jr passing! We go waaay back to 192 Whittlesey living next to Pete&Anna Fritz!! Our girls thought of them as their grandparents! We got to know&love the whole family and to this day, have such fond memories of those years! Whenever we ran into any of them over the years, they always greeted us like family. Larry was a man who's smile was always quick to appear and looong lasting!! As a matter of fact, he is surely looking down at you all with that BIG smile right now!! May God's PEACE&STRENGTH be yours now and in the days ahead!!

I am so sorry. Larry was a great guy and I am so saddened at this news. He helped me once at work for about 3 weeks and I know him as compassionate, sympathetic and understanding. He was also a great listener and a terrific advocate for his fellow coworkers. I am so sorry for your loss and the pain you must be feeling. May God's Grace's be with you at this tough time. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
