Pat I am so sorry to hear about Larry.  My thoughts and prayers are with you. He was a wonderful person, so caring and humorous.  God be with you during this time.

Larry has been in my life since I was 1-year-old and Patricia and Larry began dating. I always welcomed him by crawling up in his lap when I was a child. He knew so much about so many things - computers, electronics, history and more.  He enjoyed life and Patricia. He was just over to the house 3 days before, telling me what was wrong with something I was trying to fix and giving me his opinion of what he would do if he were me. I'll miss his stories, his kindness, his love of family and friends, his pecan pies, and that big smile and sense of humor. I was so blessed to have him as a brother (in-law). I miss him so much. It just doesn't seem real.

pat, i was in shock to find out that your wonderful husband had passed away you two are the nicest and kindest couple i have ever met my prayers are with you at this time of loss he will truly be missed may God provide you with comfort

We are very sorry to hear that Larry passed away.  I'm Marla's mother-in-law.  Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.  Karen and Jack Mooresmith, Lake Martin, AL

We are still in shock, as I know you are also.  Larry was my "Big Brother".  I hear his laughter and I see his smile.  I know how he loved you, it was so very obvious to everyone that knew him.  We love you and just know you are in our prayers.

We are still trying to recover from the shocking and sad news that Larry has passed away.  He was a wonderful cousin - and-  I can't think of anyone who has been more consistently positive and upbeat than Larry.  He enjoyed life and made life more enjoyable for those of us around him.  I will never forget his and Patricia's hospitality when I lived in Birmingham - and-  both helped to make Maria feel more of a part of our family.  He played with and teased our children - and - we will all miss him.  Patricia, we will be praying for you.

Dear Patricia, although it has been some time since I last saw you and Larry. I still remember your warm smile and his light hearted joking. I have many fond memories of you both and want to express my sincerest condolences for you in this difficult time.

Dear Pat,

We are sad at your loss.  Larry was a special, kind, and caring man and we are all going to miss him very much.

Larry was always so happy and so welcoming.  Larry talked quite a bit, letting people into his heart and making them feel at ease.  Wherever he was there was laughter, if it was appropriate to the occassion.  

My daughter, Sara, met many relatives this November but the one she talked about the most was Larry, "the funny man who was always playing pranks on me" she said.  She is also sad that he has passed on.  

He had this great laugh and used it often.  I loved how he would smile at you, Pat, and would glow, even after so many years of marriage.  Your enduring love for each other is very inspiring. 
   
We are all saddened at the loss of Larry, at the loss of his smiles, his laughter, his jokes, and his teasing of my kids.  

You are in our thoughts and prayers, Pat.  

Maria Coble, Ronnie's wife

Pat, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this very sad time.

Dear Patricia
This was so unexpected! Doug and I have so enjoyed and been so entertained by Larry. He was a wonderful and unique person to share a life with. We are so sorry for your loss.

Mom and I have all the families in our prayers.

We want to express our sincerest condolences on the loss of such a wonderful man. We always looked forward to Larry coming into the office with a smile on his face and kind words for us. Many prayers and thoughts from our office to you.

What a wonderful life we have had with our brother (in-law)! Larry was always upbeat, funny and available to assist with anything. He loved talking! He knew so much about everything: computers, history, mechanics, and just about anything else you might wan to talk about! We truly loved him as a brother and will miss him.

Pat,

Mom called last night and told me. I was so sad, and surprised, about Larry's passing. You both are very special to me, and have been part of my life for as long as I can remember.

I remember going to your house and playing video games. Y'all were the only ones that I ever knew that had a BETA video system. :)I am glad that I was able to see y'all when Larry's mom passed away earlier this year.

My love to you, and please know that I am thinking and praying for you during this time.

I'll miss his smile and laugh.

Dear Patricia- We are extremely sorry for your and our loss of Larry.  It does not seem that long ago that you were newly marrieds and that you had found the right person.  Certainly he was one loved by the entire family because he was dependable, always caring, and just a great person.  It was just a few months ago during the funeral period of Aunt Madge that he and I had an extended conversation on the phone and recognize that death was coming for us but we did not expect it to be us for a long time.  Larry was not only your husband, -he was your very good companion.  Your relationship was one that all couples could admire and follow.  Know that we are in spirit with you although we are in Massachusetts.  It is hard being so far from my family and especially during times like this.  Clara and I send you our prayers and love.  Jim

Pat,
Becky and I cannot begin to express our sorrow at your loss.  Having met and camped with you and Larry as yet another of the adopted couples into the "Camping Critters" was a blessing.  May God provide you with His peace and comfort during this time.
