I served with Larry in the US Army from 1966 - 1967. At that time he was a 1st Lt in charge of a Nike Attack Missile Team in Oakdale, Pennsylvania. A true gentleman and great guy, sorry for your loss

I became acquainted with Larry and his brother Carl over years of wonderful memories playing tennis at Maybank Tennis Center.

Either playing with or playing against Larry, it was always a joy to be on court and around Larry. As a sportsman, I admired his competitive spirit, but I admired even more so his jovial personality. Larry always left you feeling better! He had an engaging, open personality and man that laugh and smile. What a winner!

Even after becoming ill, Larry continued to stay positive every time I engaged a conversation!

Also, the brotherly connection he shared with Carl, even if they may have differed on tennis strategies was heir apparent!

Larry will be missed by so many undoubtedly, and I am better for knowing and being around his joy!

Prayers to all his family!

I didn't know Larry or his brother. But...I watched him win the Turkey Day races to claim the victory for Rivers in '60. He was the final runner who finished ahead of me. His brother ran in the back field along with the Bantams' Russel and Mosley.

I played doubles tennis against Larry and Carl many, many times and so enjoyed his wisdom, wit, decency, and sense of fair play. A kind man and a tough competitor. It was a pleasure to witness his love for his brother Carl-and also their occasional, humorous disputes about strategy and tactics on the court. An inspiration to witness their brotherly connection.

I met Larry while working at AVCO & a nicer person could not be found, his ever present smile & laughter along with a deep sense of getting the job done properly have lived with me all of these years. To the family my deepest thoughts are with all of you at this most trying time, Larry will be in my heart forever.

Francie, Caroline, Jenny & Mark & Maria, I am so sorry for your loss. Larry was part of the 1st Degree Exemplification team when I came into the Knights of Columbus in Guantanamo Cuba. He was the penultimate Charleston gentleman and the grace with which he conducted himself was an inspiration to me and our Brother Knights. I Pray our Heavenly Father will shower you all with his Solace and Grace.
