I BEFRIENDED LARRY A FEW YEARS BACK WHEN I DISCOVERED HE WAS RELATED TO MY PAST BOSS AT DMH. I “ALWAYS” ENJOYED CHATTING WITH HIM WHEN HE WAS IN. I WAS PLEASENTLY SURPRISED WHEN HE CAME IN THIS TIME HAVING NOT BEEN IN FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS AS HE TOLD ME. I AM SO VERY SORRY TO LEARN OF HIS PASSING. WE HAD SOME WONDERFUL CONVERSATIONS ABOUT EVERYTHING AND NOTHING !! I ENJOYED SEEING HIS NAME COME UP ON MY PHONE, I KNEW A GREAT CHAT WAS COMING MY WAY AND FELT BLESSED TO HAVE KNOWN HIM THROUGH THE PHONE . MAY GOD COMFORT YOU AND KNOW THAT HE IS NOW BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO BREATHE FREE AND BE COMFORTABLE. HUGS AND PRAYERS FOR THE FAMILY
