    I can remember when My brother (Larry) was a little kid. We built forts in the back yard. Larry, his 2 brothers (Kenneth and Gerald) and I were behind 1 fort and dad was behind the other. Dad kept sticking his head up and saying you missed me,Ha!Ha! Larry had packed a snowball so hard that it turned into an iceball. When dad stuck his head up again Larry threw the iceball and got dad with it. Dad was so upset that he would not have anymore snowball fights with us. Larry would follow me no matter where I went. We were together a lot. I love my brother and he will always be in my heart. I miss him very much. God rest his soul. My love will always stay with him and his family

    We knew Larry as a fun loving guy who liked to spend time with his family and friends, the thing that we are going to miss about him is that he always had at least one joke to tell and no matter how down you were he could always make you smile

    Josh and family…I did not know larry but in the last 9yrs I have known Josh and now know where he got his humor, caring personality, strength in friendship and his love for fishing and being outdoors. Not to mention the the gift he has for being a “TRUE” friend. Larry odviously set the example for many people in what a Good man is. I pray you all have peace in the difficult days ahead. My prayers are with all of you…..Heather Schlueter

    I feel really bad because I had to work the day of the funeral, and I do not drive, so I feel very terrible! Larry was a really great person, and he always made me smile even when I was sad! I will definitely miss him!
