Larry was a beloved husband, father, and friend known for his easygoing nature and love of life's simple pleasures. He enjoyed riding his golf cart around, even if it meant occasionally bumping into things. Larry had a passion for cars, particularly his Dodge Demon Dart, and he found joy in tinkering with them. Another favorite pastime was visiting the casino, where he liked to try his luck at the slots and watching horse races. Larry cherished his weekly card games with friends until his health prevented him from attending.
Professionally, Larry dedicated much of his life to hard work. Starting as a roustabout, he worked his way up to become a drilling superintendent before health concerns led him to Wyatt Compressor at the Port of Iberia.

Segura (Christy) and Joseph "Joey" Segura (Monica); his daughter-in-law, Rachel Segura; his grandchildren, Lauren Rogers (Dylan), Seth Segura (Kayla), Scott Segura (Brittany), Amber Bodin, Alexis Thibodeaux (Dylan), Kaitlyn Glover (Kyle), Dakota Smith, and Keegan "Bubba" Segura; his great grandchildren, Rylan Rogers, Bentley Segura, Cohen Segura, Cullen Segura, Crue Segura, Ahnaleigh Patout , Auden Patout, Elliana Patout, Everleigh Liner; his godchildren, Lynn L.
