Larry was always there with a warm smile and word of encouragement. He would keep going and giving when others around him got tired and took time off. He didn't know how to say no if you asked him for help. One of my favorite memories is when Larry would go out with me as a snowshow trip leader for Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Snohomish County. When we would stop for lunch Larry would quickly eat and then run off with the kids to sled on the pieces of plastic he had brought along in his pack. The kids for months afterwards would comment on how much fun they had and how much they appreciated Larry. His heart and soul will definately be missed, but never forgotten. See you on the other side my friend. God Bless.
