Larry Lee Padgett Sr., 86, of Winnebago, Illinois, passed away at home in the early hours of Wednesday, May 15, 2024. Larry was born on the Fourth of July in 1937 to Donald and Virginia Padgett in Linton, Indiana. He moved to Rockford, Illinois as a child, and as he grew, established himself here. Larry worked at Amerock as a machinist for over 30 years before retiring. While working at Amerock, he met Frances Jackson, who was his longtime companion before her passing.
Larry was an avid Nascar fan, as well as the Chicago Cubs. He enjoyed bowling throughout the years, as well as fishing. He especially looked forward to going on fishing trips to Wisconsin with his friends. Above all else, Larry loved being a Pa-Paw to his grandchildren, and looked forward to each moment he could spend with them.
Larry is survived by his children, Elizabeth “Liz” (Robert) Mortimore, Larry Lee Padgett Jr., Brenda (James) Woodard, Debra Foxhoven, Laura (Tom) Ramsey, and Rebecca (John) McElmeel; mother of his children, JoAnn Webster; numerous grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, as well as nieces and nephews.
The family would like to extend their gratitude to Mercy Health Hospice for their love, care, and support to Larry in his final days.
