So sorry for your loss. Larry was one of my favorite coworkers. He had a great personality, and always had something to say ( once he got to know you). Great guy!

Many great times with you and Farmall…..
Best one I can think of is when you told Ricky Hall you’d wrestle him over $500 on a new tractor.
And he weighed 400 lbs
I will miss you

As a cousin of Linda, we got to know Larry through our cousin reunions. Really enjoyed getting to know Larry and the conversations we had at these gatherings. He was a welcome addition to our family.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of Larry’s family.
