Many thanks to friend Allen for always being a haven for Larry to visit during his dementia
Larry was a wonderful Husband, Father and Grandfather. He was also proud to have been in the air force reserves. Larry was always helping with school projects, making Halloween costumes all with great detail. He was an excellent carver, he carved an entire stagecoach with horses, kegs and canopy. Larry also had a love of aboriginal art. He entered some of his works into contests such as the the design for the new flag and the design for the twoonie. Larry created many artworks and paintings, most of which he has gifted over the years. Larrys imagination and gift to see art in even the smallest things was one of his most beloved qualities. An Artist, a Tinkerer with a workshop full of magic and mystery, most of all a Kind and Loving man who would drop everything to help others.
You will be forever missed.
