Larry was a genuine, intelligent and extremely compassionate mentor and friend.  He was a consummate gentleman and a leader in  the Funeral Industry. It was a privilege and pleasure to be his friend. Love and prayers to Adam and family.

Larry was one of my brother’s (Buzz Coe) closest friends when they were growing up in Temple Terrace, Florida.  His sister, Paula, was a friend of mine.  We, the Coe family, send our sincere condolences on Larry’s passing.

The Straw family have so many fond memories of the Kidd family
back in the 80’s in Pinellas Park. Our families had so much fun ; Beach, baseball, dinners, and card games. Once we even evacuated from a hurricane together in the middle of the night . Things change and people move on but we have remained 
close to Victoria and Adam. It was especially heartwarming in many
ways to see Larry at Adam and Monica’s wedding. We had the chance
to reminisce not knowing it would be the last time we would see him.
I was happy for that good bye hug..
Thank you for your service especially at such a difficult time in Viet Nam. That service gave you your calling. 
Rest in Peace , Larry Kidd . You
touched many lives with your love and compassion and you leave behind Adam, Monica and Aiden to carry on your good name.

Larry, you were one of my dearest and closest friends for the past 37 years, ever since we met at Garden of Memories Funeral Home in Tampa.  I hate that we lost touch in recent years. I tried to call you several times to check in with you but I never knew if you got my messages. Thank goodness this last time, your sweet wife, Paulette, messaged me back and I was able to talk to you one more time. I'm so happy that you found love with her and that she was there to care for you till the end. I know I'll see you again one day. Until then you'll be in my heart. I love you Creep-Face.

To:  Larry's Wife and Friends and Family of my Brother Larry Kidd.
My Brother was the most wonderful Brother a person could have.

I loved my brother so much and will miss him every day.
I want to thank Paulette for all the years she took care of my brother'
she was there to the end of his life. he was able to stay in his home

I'm so blessed to have been a part of your world and happy I was given the honor of helping your final wish to pass peacefully at home be fulfilled. You left this earth encompassed by your "adopted" family. You added so much joy and love and you made it so easy to care for you in your remaining years. Your sacrifice for this country was twofold and on your behalf, I would like to thank the VA for helping us keep you in your home until the very end. "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who has been called according to his purpose". Romans 8:28
Your earthly purpose has been fulfilled. Rest in peace, my love.
Until we meet again,
Your loving wife

Our sweet Larry,
     These past years having you in our family were absolutely wonderful. All the christmas’s and birthdays with the kids creating memories with laughter and joy.  I was Larry’s home care and was with him daily. My grandson Finn would run to him and they would talk and play together seemed for hours and how he so reveled in the children from talking about airplanes and flight school with my son to cheerleading with my youngest daughter. Larry was so loved and cherished he was our treasure. No one anticipates being apart of the loss when someone passes however I was privileged to be there telling him how loved he was when he departed. We love you Larry and will forever be on our hearts.

I am Larry's brother Mark. 
I always made sure I stayed in touch.  He meant alot to me.  I always looked up to him.  God Bless to his family.

I once knew a man named Larry Kidd who adored quality time with me and my husband. When he came to visit us in college, I was ready to drag him around everywhere to show him our life together. When an incident almost took Adam from us, he came running. When we got married, he was the proudest Papa. And, when cancer brutally took my Mom’s life after a battling nearly my entire life, he listened to me on several phone calls, about life changing and my grief. Eventually, we convinced him to move near us, and I once again dragged him everywhere. Church, breweries, bike races, brunches with our friends, and even yoga once to help him with his Parkinson's. Disease is treacherous, and unfortunately our input into his care plan tore us apart. When I look back on my Mom’s battle with cancer, I remember there’s so much she never shared with me or wanted me “helping” with. Maybe that’s a parent/child dynamic that will never make sense to children trying to do the best they can to help. We never got the chance to reconcile. But, I do have strong memories of his love and support through some of the toughest moments of my life. And, for that, Im grateful. Rest in peace, Larry. Im very sorry you suffered for so long.

Larry was a great brother in law.  We were friends for a long time. Met while him and Victoria were just dating. A long time ago. 
So sorry for your loss Adam.
