I was deeply saddened to hear of Larry's passing. I met Larry shortly after starting with Willamette in 1988. Larry was dedicated to his family, work and protecting the environment. We were true friends and helped each other through many difficult situations in our lives. My prayers go out to his family and all his friends. We will miss him. God has added an angel to watch over us. Dave and Marcia Franz

I knew Larry when we were all Willamette / Weyerhaeuser together. He was such a friendly, respectful guy who will be greatly missed by his family and friends. I am sure he is riding one heck of a Trike in Heaven.

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling." Psalm 46:1-3 Micah and I love you all and are praying for you. Larry was a wonderful man. There was never a time I saw him without a smile on his face, and I know he is smiling down on his family still.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

I cannot express my sadness over Larry’s death. He was truly one of a kind. He encouraged people, loved people, and gave us an example to live by. He was a man of his word and a man of many talents. He worked hard and he played hard. He loved his family and most important, he loved Jesus. The world will miss Larry. I will miss Larry. A void has been left that no one can fill. We can all take comfort that Larry is in the presence of our heavenly father. He has his rewards and he can sing and praise for eternity.

For the short time that I worked with Larry, I came to understand that this is a man that really loves the Lord, and stands for his convictions. He cared for so many people. Larry, you will be truly missed. Can't wait to see you again on the other side.
Aunt Connie & Uncle Dick left a message on April 9, 2011:
We were very sorry to hear of Larry's death. We loved Larry very much. He will be truly missed. Our family won't be the same without him, as we know yours won't be either. Just remember that he is up in Heaven with God and GG & your Pop and he will always be in our hearts. Just want you to know that we are praying for your entire family. Love, Aunt Connie & Uncle Dick

Larry was a wonderful family man with a true heart for God. His love for both was demonstrated by his actions each day. Even though I only knew Larry for 4 years as a co-worker at another Flakeboard mill, his encouragement and positive example will always be an inspiration to me. May God watch over the family as they deal with his loss. He will missed by many.

Dear Kimmie, Brian, and Kevin, You were just "young-uns" when your family welcomed me as an "adopted" college student during my days at Tech. I have such fond memories of our Sunday lunches together! In recent years, Larry reconnected with me and my family when we moved from out of state back to Monroe. He has prayed for and encouraged us many, many times. I'm grieving with you, dear ones. Praise the Lord we don't grieve as those without hope! Reunion day is coming!!! Your father has left you a priceless legacy. My love and prayers are with you.

Mr. Larry will be greatly missed. Known to me as "Maura's Grandpa" he has been a constant attendant to every event held at Choudrant Elementary and Choudrant High School from kindergarten through this year. He has always shown me kindness and courtesy. I can only hope to be the kind of grandparent I have seen Mr. Larry being. In deepest sympathy, our prayers are with you.

Steven and Liz Gilbert left a message on April 7, 2011:
Well, we can't tell you how sad we were to hear that Larry has left this world. The Lord's gain, our loss in many ways. Larry has been such a special friend to our family over the years. I first remember how he loaned us his grill to use at the furlough house we stayed in years ago. That was the first time we met and we all hit it off immediately. You could see his love for Jesus right away! Larry started sending Steven a running magazine faithfully all the way to Kazakhstan every month! They shared that love for running. We were so thankful for all of those magazines, the way he kept in touch and connected us to his sweet house group at Crossroads this last furlough. What touches my mama's heart though was how Larry loved on our kids. It always made us smile when he would slip our kids money for their very own and more recently how he would check on our Sarah at Tech and take her to eat. With us living so far away and our kids having no grandparents, those things mean the world to us! Larry told Steven the last time we were home that he wanted to be like a grandfather to our kids! He sure kept his promise. The last time we saw him was January 2010 when we left from Shreveport to go back to Kazakhstan. How precious of him to do that. It was the hardest to leave that time because we were leaving our Sarah behind. He just seemed to understand us and what we do and always found ways to encourage us. I know his family is missing him greatly and you might be wondering how you will fill the gaps he leaves...especially for the grand kids. Thankfully, I can say that the Lord does indeed fill those gaps when our kids need them. HE did this for our kids through Larry. Praise the Lord we will see our sweet brother again! We are praying for you that are grieving his loss. We grieve with you yet rejoice that He knew the right One. Liz for the Gilberts in Kazakhstan

Larry will never be forgotten by those who worked with him and had he opportunity to know him as a friend. From South Carolina I worked with Larry for 17 years during the Willamette / Weyerhaeuser / Flakeboard transitions. What a great resource and sounding board he was for accomplishing great things for all of us who knew him. I additionally truly respected him for his healthy approach to life. Thanx Larry.
Karen Broadway left a message on April 7, 2011:
I am still in shock, my condolences to the family.He was a wonderful friend to me and a Godly man. It was a priviledge to know him. I will miss him deeply, he was always there for me when my son died.We were in CMA and the PGR together. He loved his family very much. Praying comfort and peace to you. Love you my brother Larry.

Our family was deeply sadden by the news of Larry's passing. Larry picked berries at our blueberry farm every year for as long as my wife and I can remember. He talked so foudly of his kids and was so proud of all his grand children. This blue berry season will not be the same without him. Our prays go out to his family.

Larry was always a true friend and mentor to me and many others. I'm thankful for the wonderful memories I have of him that range from him being at the hospital when my son was born to the many "antics" that made him Larry. He will be missed by many.
