Larry we thank you for all of the times you came in and brightened our day. Every time we see a Werther’s we will most certainly think of you since that was your trade mark. May you RIP and all of your memories live on.

Hello Lynn, Brenda, Larry Jr and Daniel,
Becky and I are praying for your family. We are so sorry for your loss. Though we hadn’t seen each other for some time, I enjoyed my time, as a boy, with Uncle Larry.
