It is with fond memories I send my heartfelt continuing condolences to Aline, Suzanne and Misty. I miss Larry tremendously. I know he has a golf club across his knees as he sits and tells his wonderful stories, surrounded by other good and kind people.

Aline, Suzanne & Misti,

I just now heard of Larry's passing. Just last week I was telling members of my company how Larry Roshto touch and influenced my life. I will NEVER forget him. So many of my career achievements I owe to him. Larry has left a mark on this earth that is irreplacable. I will forever hold dear the years you all spent in Atlanta. My love, sympathy and prayers are with you all.

Dear Roshto Family,
I don't have to tell you how Larry could light up a room...He was always so passionate and candid. I admire those qualities as they are a rare combination. He was always so generous with his sage advice and kind wisdom; willing to help anyone at anytime. His family was always first in his thoughts and deed. You never had to wonder what was on his mind, he would tell you. I love his stories...his eyes would just twinkle as he passed on his experiences to his collegues. The landscape is missing a large tree without Larry here...
Most warmly,
Sheryl King

Dear Roshto Family,

I met your father and dad over 11 years ago when I started at HMR after a long career at Colgate-Palmolive. He was a true leader and earned my respect from the gitgo. But his greatest accomplishment is now: What we see by faith today, he is seeing face to face!

Aline and family.
Tracy and I send our condolences to you and your family. Larry and I worked together at Sanofi-Aventis his last few working years. He was a great guy, very knowledgable, willing to share insights and ideas on how to do things the "right" way. He was not only smart, he was very wise as well, humble, and shrewd. You were not going to pull too much over on Larry, he would catch you...I can see him smiling now;) I would call him from time to time to make sure he was okay, and I was thinking about him this week.
It was an honor to know and work with Mr. Roshto.
With Sympathy,
Lester and Tracy Devlin

Aline, Misty and Suzanne,your husband/father was such a part of so many lives in the Pharmaceutical field. Even tho' it's been years since I've seen him he remains a part of many great memories with Hoechst. As Don said-he was larger than life.
God bless you all.

Aline, you and the family have our deepest sympathies. Linda and I just loved Larry's humor. What a great personality. The "pig pickens" at the Ploured's were always fun. We will miss Larry very much. Linda & Woody Aydlette

I will miss you, old friend, and regret not keeping in touch as the years flew by. It was only yesterday,wasn't it, that we were colleagues and roommates at meetings? Larry was larger than life, and knew it, and was gracious with that power.

Aline, you and your family have my most sincere sympathy in the loss of Larry. My thoughts and prayers have been and are with each of you. Please know that I care.
