Nancy,
I am saddened to hear of Larry’s passing, but comforted by warm memories, as I’m sure are shared by many. I had a deep respect for Larry’s talent and straightforward approach to business issues in the years we worked together at Deaconess. He had a subtle sense of humor that showed enjoyment on his face–I liked and appreciated Larry a lot—God rest his soul !
May God grant you, Denver and all family members with only the best memories as you remember and celebrate Larry’s life.

I am sorry to hear of the loss of your dear loved one, please accept my deepest condolences to family and friends. I know this is a sad time for all of you now as you will miss many things about him. But after your mourning you can remember the hope our loving heavenly father, Jehovah, has opened up for us thru Christ ransom sacrifice; that of a resurrection to perfect life in a Paradise where there will not be sickness, suffering, or death. This promise can be read at Revelation 21:3, 4: And he will wipe every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain. Your tears of sadness will be turned to tears of joy! How wonderful that Jesus taught us to pray for this kingdom to come at Matthew 6:9,10, many know it as the Lord’s pray. So when you are feeling sad, think of the hope we have!
So sorry to hear this…He and I were good friends in High School…good all around Christian man….my condolences to all his family members. Praying for God’s comfort at this time…
