Joan, I was deeply sadden to learn of the loss of your husband. From the moment I met both of doing nothing more than shopping - there was something that symbolized a deep bond between you. I truly looked forward to seeing you on every shopping trip thereafter. I will always remember how very proud Larry was of both his family and service to our military, and enjoyed his stories.
Joan, I will keep looking for you on your shopping trips and we can still share a good hug.
Very fondly,
Maryann

Joannie and Family,
It was a great pleasure to have known Larry professionally and personally. I am thankful God put him in my path. I enjoyed working with him for 23 years. I appreciated him being a mentor to me while working with him through the years.
He was a great American Soldier and I thank him form serving our wonderful country. I also thank his family for supporting him.
It is sad that Larry is no longer with us physically; however, I am certain you and I will see him again one day. God has completely heal Larry, no more pain and for that I rejoice.
May God wrap his comforting/loving arms around all of you as you celebrate Larry's Life as it was here with us and now his eternal life. Larry was a true "Peachy" Blessing.

You were a good friend and “neighbor” to us and all Veterans whose lives you touched. You always wore a smile and brimmed with good humor and warmth, all the while being "at the ready ready" to assist anyone in need. You will be sorely missed by all. Rest in Peace dear "Brother" and Friend.

Larry and I were associated for more than twenty years. He as an inspector and I
as producer of products for the US Armed Forces at Tracor/BAE. Our relationship always had the best of all outcomes, protection of the war fighters defending our country.
I have not met his children but I have heard of your experiences and successes, another tribute to a great person and father. Joannie, I have had the pleasure of seeing you at many of our social occasions and providing tantalizing desserts for
our St. Patty's Day. I know you will miss him most of all. You married, lived with,
raised a great family and had a wonderful life with a man I truly respected and admired as a friend and business associate. He will sorely be missed.
