Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Jackie and family, I was thankful that Karen Roehrman left me a message about Larry’s passing. I might have missed his obituary. It seems like yesterday that we were at the Cessna dinner celebrating his 40th anniversary with Cessna and just a few more days ago that all of our children were running around the church building at Westlink. Lance would like me to relay a special message to Todd that he is so sorry for the loss of his father and I also want to say, Jackie, that you are in my thoughts and I know that your grief is tremendous. Thank goodness you have a wonderful family and good friends to give you support in the future. Love to you and yours,
Scott and Family: Although we mourn with you for the loss of your loved one’s physical presence, we rejoice with you that Larry is with the Lord in Paradise! May his memory be eternal. Love, Kirby and Cheryl Jantz
I was one of the nurses that treated Larry. He would come in for treatment and he always had a movie to watch. I looked forward to the review he would give. He had a peaceful spirit, must have been one that only God can give. My prayers of comfort and peace go out to you. Seems we have all cared for people love,I cared for Larry and you have cared for both my dad(Bill Edwards) and husband(Travis). I think I had the easier of the three–Larry was always patient and kind–HA HA! God bless you all!!
We remember Larry selflessly putting his family’s needs ahead of his own; how he was always quick to lend a helping hand; how he faithfully lead his family in a quiet, loving, example-filled walk with God.
Sorry to see that Larry had passed away, I wondered when I didn’t see you at the center Jackie. My love and prayers are with you and your family.
