Very sorry for your loss.
When I was a lonely Freshman in Brandon High School. I was going out for Football. I was nervous. Larry did not know me and took the time to talk to me. He made me feel confident I could do it. Thank you Larry. I never forgot this. Thank you for your Service. Rest In Peace.
I’m so very sorry for your loss. Praying for the whole family. Gene and Dawn Herr
