Larry Lee Skinner, Jr. was born in Maryland to Larry Lee Skinner, Sr. and LaWanda Jean Skinner on September 22, 1962. He passed away in his home in OKC on November 20, 2019. Larry was considered by family and friends as a kind, giving, funny, people and animal loving guy! He was a social butterfly as he always had a joke or a story to tell whether you were visiting, working with him, or had just met him! (Sometimes they could get quite lengthy!) He loved his family, his friends, and his & everyone else’s pets deeply and unconditionally. He was a loving and caring person who dreamed big and everyone had a place in his plan to be taken care of for life. He never met a stranger and would go out of his way to help anyone, sometimes to the degree of being taken advantage of, as he got more satisfaction out of knowing he was helping someone and doing the right thing than any financial reward he might have expected. He was available for family, friends, clients, or bosses 24/7. He loved watching his grandchildren in all their activities. He never knew the meaning of “it can’t be done or fixed”. He was the “2nd pony tailed MacGyver” as he would find the most random things to make anything work. He was an amazing son, brother, husband, uncle, father in law, grandpa, and friend! Until we see you again, we will miss your smile and laugh here with us! “We love you, Bye!” He was preceded in death by his great Grannie Parker of Marlow; his grandparents, Clarence & Ruth Callaway of Duncan; Grandma Opal Skinner of Midwest City; Dad, Larry Skinner Sr. of OKC; step Dad, Jack Kester of OKC; cousin Jimmy Dale Callaway of Duncan; & several great uncles, aunts & distant cousins. He is survived by his wife Maxine of the home; mother, LaWanda Kester of OKC; sister, Sandra (Darryl) Heintzelman of OKC; nephew & niece, Blake & Shelby Heintzelman of OKC; aunt & uncle, Dale & Jane Callaway of Duncan; cousin Cindy(Todd) Callaway of Duncan; Step brothers, John(Stephanie) & Robert (Traci) Kiosterud; Step sisters, Lisa (Jett) Jones & Laura Kester; Arkansas family – step daughter, Meagan(Jim) Wadkins; 4 grandchildren, Noah, Ledger, Kensington, & Chloe; mom-in-law, Patricia Reed; dad-in-law, Jack Reed; Brother in law, Jimmy Reed; sister in laws, Marilu Wallace, Jeanne (Brad) Stockburger, & Jacque Croff; from both sides - 9 nephews, 12 nieces, great nieces & nephews; his dog kids “Jax” & “Tootsie”; Niece dog “Nahla”.
