I worked with Larry for many years at the Post Dispatch his wit and humor always left a lot of us in stitches and made it easier to work. Him and my brother Ray were always telling jokes those two made the day go by a little quicker. The last time I saw Larry was at his Birthday party he will truly be missed by all those that knew him I posted a picture of myself Larry and my brother Ray who I miss terribly
Fond memories when Larry was young he got hit by car while on his bike my mother heard it on radio on her way to work she turned around gave him 10.00 hoping it would make him feel better Larry was my mom & dad’s favorite of all the boys my dad sneaked Larry out one time because uncle Ray said he couldn’t go with us my dad wanted Larry to get that double gun & holster the carnival club was giving to boys for Christmas when carnival was in town & all the boys come mother always made cotton candy 3 times bigger then normal so many good memories your loving cousin Mary Ellen
May your happy memories give you peace and comfort during this challenging time.
