I will miss you so much, my friend. My whole family is mourning the Larry they got to know. Your friends at the Hy-Vee will miss you too, as will all the friends you had made at your garden. I know you will also be very missed by Maria, Keith and Lena. I will make sure & mention you every chance I get, because you were very important to us. Live this special life to the best, and save me (and a hundred of your other friends) a seat right in your area, because I know that's where I want to be! I will continue to watch the sunset off your porch until the new owners kick me off of it!!!! Over & out for now, Larry!

Love you Uncle Larry! Thanks for treating me so well in my youth… many great memories with you and Michael - especially pan fishing on the lake which was always more appealing for my attention deficient personality than trout fishing with Dad and Grandpa :-).
