Dear Eric and Family, I know how very much you will miss Larry - it is truly hard to find such good people to be in our lives as he (and your mom, Becky) was. I will always remember his kind smile, friendliness and generosity. May your road ahead be paved with wonderful memories. Kindness & prayers, Lisa McDavid.

Dear Eric and family,
I was so sad to hear of Larry being ill and his death. As soon as I heard, I visited him in the ICU. Would have loved to talk with him again. He was such a kind man and loved his wife and family with all his heart. Also loved the Lord. If there is any way I may assist your family with the long road of grief, I hope you will call. All my love and prayers are with you all.
Marla

Eric, I was so sorry to hear if your loss. I was a nurse in Parkersburg who worked with Larry and later I worked for Medtronic doing clinics in my retirement. I have been well out of the loop for several years and did not even know of your mother’s passing. Knowing how much Larry adored his Becky that must have been a real blow. You were raised by special people. My prayers are with you.

A kind, gentle man, a truly nice person. So proud of Erica & Lora & his grandchildren. My good friend for many years with whom I had numerous good times. I cherished my friendship and I will truly miss his company. He’s now with Becky, the love of his life. God bless.
