I worked with Larry at Centel for several years and always thought a lot of him. He was a good man & will be missed. I think the last time I saw Larry was a few years ago when I ran into him at Mayflower in Danville and we talked. I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know any of you, but I am praying for each of you as I know the heartache you are going through. God be with each of you.

Larry was a good man, always full of laughter and a friend to all who knew him. He was good friends with Angela's Dad, Freddy Wilkerson for most of their lives, I'm sure Freddy met him at the Pearly Gates with a nice hug and a beer. RIP Larry !!!
