    Larry was such a loving and caring man. He always put others needs before his own. He never let Cancer get the best of him. He fought with such courage and humor. I know he’s dancing with Angels now.

    Gone but will never be forgotten. Larry was a special guy. Loved by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. An inspiration sharing his story with so many. So very strong to the end. I worked with him at the bag plant in Jacksonville for years. He will be missed. My condolences to Paula and family.
