    I love and miss you so much Larry. You’re the best dad I could have ever asked for. It’s going to be so hard living life without you and not seeing you every day. I already miss spending time with you every night in the living room after work. Me and mom both love you so much. Thank you for being in our lives and making it so much brighter.

    Deepest sympathies to the family. When I think of growing up together I can’t help but smile. We laughed…we definitely did laugh.
