Bonnie, Marelee, Ron & Family~
I am so sad to hear of the loss of Larry. He was such a wonderful man. All those years spent at the Sand Dunes with you all and him, he was always so calm and cool, and just all over a wonderlu guy. I know he will be missed. I hope you can find comfort and peace in the many memories with him. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
