I always looked forward to a real adventure whenever I signed up for one of your trips. You've mentored me, shared your life with Nancy and me and respected everyone around you, no matter what our weaknesses were. I looked up to you as an inspiration that "goals" can be met. I remember our double-dates when Nancy and I first met. We enjoyed the "Christmas lights" walks in Mill Creek and sharing hot cider and chocolate at your home. You've helped me grow and overcome my own fears. I remembered my first climb with you on Snow King back on Father's Day 1996. I've enjoyed Eldorodo, Jack Mountain and numerous climbs with you over the years. I will miss you Larry as my Friend and comrade of 11 years. Nancy will too. Good-bye my Friend........until we meet again.
