Larry and I shared a special bond as cousins growing up and through our adult life. We were a lot alike. I remember one time when we were dancing together at Ambrose’s anniversary party. He said neither of us had to grow up yet. We were adults. He loved to dance as did most of his Uncles. I visited him last summer and had a great time. Larry gave me a huge part of Mary’s religious statue collection . He said Mary and him thought I would appreciate them and be a good caretaker. He was right. I think of Larry every time I look at them. I have been praying for him ever since he called me and told me he had brain cancer. Now we pray harder. I will miss you and that big smiling face.. I love you Larry.❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I told my grand children that Larry was santa claus. I stopped at Larry's 'home with my 4 year old grandson, Jasper, Jasper asked Larry where are the reindeer, Larry' response was the reindeer are up north, because it is to hot in the summer in Argyle.
