    Being teenagers, Lara and I found ourself sometimes in trouble with the big guy. Always patient and ready to make a situation a little funnier. He pampered us by taking us out to dinner, where I’d feel so elegant….as well as a trip one time out East. Him and Lara both attended my fathers funeral when I was 15, and I’ll never forget how much that meant to me. Well Larry, I guess we have a kind, true spirit on the other side now. Enriched by knowing you and God bless the family.???

    We are so sorry for your loss. Larry was a great leader and a mentor to me and others at National Fire Suppression. His vision helped lead us during his tenure at NFS. I think of him often as I sit each day in his former office. I hope he and my father (Ray) are catching up on old times, joking, laughing and having a great time once again. He is remembered and will be missed.
