Larry will be missed by so very many. He was (and is) a terrific man.   My prayers are with all of his family.   He's not gone, just away and waiting for those that he loves to join him.  God Bless you, Karen and family, as you go through this difficult time.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers.  Such a difficult time, shocking to believe all that your family is going through right now.  I have several memories of Larry that  bring a smile to my face, but none more than his laugh.  I loved to hear him laugh.  Rest in Peace Larry.

Johnna, we were so sorry to hear of not only the loss of your father but also your uncle. Our deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family.

I always admired Larry's caring ways. Did he ever meet a stranger ? He would attend the family reunions with Karen with a smile on his face. He kept up with deaths and would make an appearance at funerals or visitations  when he could. He took an interest in  people. He loved Karen enough to let her ''catch him " as she likes to say. I was always proud to consider him my cousin, even if it was only through marriage. Rest in peace .

So very sorry Karen for your loss. I am Sheila's sister.I have been around the family enough to get to meet all the Deems. They are and were all nice people. My sincere condolences to you and your family.

A childhood friend, a precious memory and nearly a family member to me.  Rest in peace, dear friend.  Barbara Dowler-Crystal (Clayton, NC)

So sorry to hear Mr. Deems passed away. It was a pleasure to care for him and get to know his wonderful family.
