Larry was in the U.S Air Force where he served in Vietnam. He loved the outdoors, especially summering at the beach, fishing and hunting. There was nothing more important than spending time with family and friends surrounded by good food (namely his pizza) and great conversation. “Papa” as many called him, was deeply loved by many and will be missed by all the lives he touched.
