Larry was my next door neighbor for nearly 30 years.  He was a kind, helpful man who always would make time to chat and say hello.  Over the years we compared contractor bids, discussed rose care, exchanged fruit from our trees, and lamented over rodents.  We shared a love of dogs- Sherman brought him so much joy.   He was always doing acts of kindness - bringing in my trash cans, fixing  a broken sprinkler he noticed in my yard,  holding a ladder so I could hang Christmas lights.  I will miss his smile, his generosity and his kindness.  Rest in peace Larry.  You lived a great life of service.

I met Larry in the park walking with Sherman. My dog & Sherman would  run together as Larry & I walked & talked. He never failed to have a beautiful smile for everyone he met. Goodbye Larry, you will be missed.

My deepest sympathy to his family.

Over the years, I had the pleasure of walking in the park with my friend Larry and our dogs. I came to know a man who was devoted to his family and his Christian beliefs. He greeted everyone each day with a smile on his face as we proceeded to enjoy the early morning air, converse, and watch our dogs romp around the park. You get to know a person quite well during those times. I know that Larry lived a life that will be well received in the hereafter. There is sadness at his loss, but his personal qualities of caring and concern for others will not be forgotten by his many friends.

Larry was a kind, gentle, caring neighbor.  Meeting every morning at 6:00 am with our little 'group' was a favorite time for us and our dogs.  Sherman loves chasing the ball and romping with his dog friends.  Sharing lifes ups and downs in those 30 min walks meant a lot to all of us who knew Larry.  We will miss his smiling face, his good nature and all goods things we will remember about Larry.

The family is in our prayers. Larry was a good family man and he will be missed. RIP! Larry.

I am so sorry to hear of Larry's passing.  I got to know Larry here in my office in Chandler.   He has always been so kind, patient, and just a joy to be around.  I have always enjoyed our conversations.  RIP Larry and I bet you can hear all the birds chirping!

As a neighbor and friend, we will miss seeing Larry outside walking his faithful dog Sherman down the street!  Larry was such a good, kind man.
