Larry was my best friend when we were both in the Air Force Reserves. We were on several 2 week active duty trips together and room mates too. We shared many good times together. 
I will always remember him fondly.

Larry, we go back to the 70’s. Never thought this would come to pass. The team competed for the first time without you. All the questions were, where is Larry.? Well, he is watching us from above was our answer. There isn’t enough paper for all the stories we shared. Life won’t be the same but we will always have you in our memories. Take care and look forward to renewing our stories in the future. Rest In Peace good buddy.

I loved playing bunco with Larry he had a great sense of humor and always made me laugh. I will never forget our last conversation and the peace he had. We took a picture that day and I will cherish it always. Rest well my friend until we meet again. 

I’m sorry that I couldn’t attend Larry’s service. Nevertheless he was always in my thoughts and prayers. I considered him to be a great friend. I lit a candle in his memory at St Patrick Cathedral In NY. May his soul Rest In Peace. 

Even though I only met my Uncle Larry a handful of times, he always had a special place in my heart, I guess because he reminded me of my own dad.  But, man, what a life he lived and even in the short amount of time we knew he was sick, he still seemed at peace and lived life with no regrets.  He’s every reason to back the blue & honor those veterans...a true patriot.  God Speed Uncle Larry...🙏🏼.  Thinking of all of y’all tonight. ♥️

Larry and I were motor partners in the late '80's. You couldn't ask for a better partner-ALWAYS there when needed. Larry was a very competent Police Officer; a Cop's COP!! Rest in Peace WARRIOR-SEMPER FI MARINE!
God Bless You.
We probably saved each others life more times than we can count- THANKS for always being there.

The day you brought me home, was very special. You picked me, the runt of the liter.
I grew so attached to Pearl because you had Buddy the dog.  Then Buddy got old and had to leave us. You were so sad and missed him so much, I decided to try and comfort you. We became insepreatble. I followed you everywhere and slept by your back side or under you arm pit. The day you left us, I was nervous didnt know what was happening. I looked for you all over the house. I waited by the door waiting for you to come home. I miss the table scraps you would give me and the special treat when mom wasn't looking. I know now my job is to try and be a comfort to mama, she misses you very much. I know now that my job is to comfort her.  Love you Papa,

Larry and I met while serving in the 55APS reserve. We got to know each other while on Annual Tour in the Philippine. He And I became very good friends since then. I was honored, when Pearl invited my wife and I to Larry’s Retirement party in Reno. We all had a great time swapping war stories about his life as a police officer and as a Reservist. 



Larry and I served together at Travis Air Force Base in the 82nd Aerial Port Squadron 
We were on Annual Tour together at Hickam Air Fore Base Hawaii in 1999
Larry was the Team Chief and I was the Assistant Team Chief
I remember when Larry retired from the Air Force Reserves. On his way out the door he handed me a cardboard box with some of his Air Force Manuals in it. He said it is your time to lead. I will never forget that moment
The picture is from our Annual Tour in Hawaii 
It was taken at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific  located at Punchbowl Crater in Honolulu

Rest in peace my Brother!

I remember well when Pearl and Larry came to visit Vi in Cape.  It was such a special time and I remember thinking how very beautiful you are Pearl and what a strong presence Larry was and how much he resembled big Eddie.  I'm sure he always made you feel safe.  Praying your sweet memories carry you all through the hard days. Much love, Colleen

Larry was a man that would do things his own way and to the best of his ability. Being my brother we spent a lot of time together and always having fun, whether it was playing Jenga, Dominos or the trips to RENO, or VEGAS, YOSEMITE  , or just camping it was an adventure. He will be missed. 

Larry was in my squad in traffic he was an excellent officer able to complete all tasks assigned with out close supervision excellent professional bearing and made my job easy as his sergeant. I truly enjoyed working with him.

I met Larry when he and I joined the Air Force Reserves at Travi AFB, in 1982. We became the best of friends. We went on a few two week active duty tours together and being roommates. Larry had a sense of humor, Always pulling pranks on me. One time, we had our own rooms and a common living area. Larry was able to access my room, taking all the lightbulbs out  and hiding them, plus "short sheeting" my bed!
One of my active duty stints, Larry asked me to have a painting of his father made from a photo he had. I naturally obliged. Also had a leather motorcycle jacket made for him too.
Larry was my best friend in the Reserves and when I was able to talk him, week before last, he told me with his strained voice, that I was his best friend. That touched and humbled me. I told him, he was my best friend too.
I know that God is blessing him and he is in good hands now and in no pain and sorrow.
May the good Lord bless Larry, 
Take care my friend,
your buddy, Don


I will always remember Larry standing on the boxes of his motorcycle saluting the crowd while OPD was performing at Pacific Grove.
To family and friends I am sorry for your loss.

SHMILY,
See How Much I Love You.
These were the little notes we used to leave each other through out the house or vehicles.  I was going through my jewelry box and found one today. Even in your passing you managed to sneak one by me.  You will forever be in my heart.
I will miss us. 
Love Always
