I met Larry back in my college days at the University of New Mexico in the 1960's.  I was a freshman working in the university library and he was my boss.  He left after only a few years, but we stayed in touch right up until shortly before his death.  I had not heard from him in a few months, and only found out about his passing by doing an internet search.  I know he was having heart issues, but in this age of COVID, I am wondering if anyone out there knows of the manner or cause of death.  I can be reached by email at rs.garrett1979@gmail.com.  I will miss my old friend.  Thanks! 

Larry was an outstanding librarian and an excellent history teacher at Imperial Valley College.  As a student in one of Larry’s history class, I found the experience to be challenging yet very enjoyable.  Everyone that knew Larry will sorely miss his humble manner and desire to help others.

I worked with Mr. Welch (Larry) at Imperial Valley College, Spencer Library. He was not just a co-worker,  but he was my Dear Friend.  I loved working with him. I have so many special  memories.  There isnt enough space here for me to share the kind person that he was. I will, and already miss him so much.  Love You Mr. Welch.

I worked with Larry at Fresno City College Library. I have so many memories of Larry to pick just one would be difficult. I loved to hear the stories of his work and travels to places I've only read or heard about. His quick wit and sense of humor still leaves me laughing. There is a great void in our Library without him.

Larry was such a wonderful person. He was a part-time Librarian at Fresno City College, where I am the dean. I started as the dean a few years ago and Larry was always so encouraging to me. He lectured me about not working so many hours and shared stories of his life traveling the world to share his love of books. He was so good for our students and they loved talking with him. We will miss him very much
