Dear Larry and Gail,
Please accept my most heartfelt sympathy on the loss of your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Dear Gail and Larry, I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad. May the memories and love you shared bring you comfort during this difficult time. Although he will be sorely missed here I know he will be joyously welcomed in heaven.  My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.

It's impossible to describe how wonderful a person Larry was.  I was just 23 years old and scared to death when I first met him in 1983. He was the Plant Manager of Karak Machine Company at the time, and I remember standing in line behind several of his engineers watching as he gave them instructions, one by one.  The closer I got to him the more I stared at the door, wondering if I should chicken out and run for it.  But I thank God that I hung in there to meet him.  Larry taught me right then and there never to fear, because when it was my turn,  I was blessed with meeting one of the most terrific individuals I've ever known in my life.  The man who from a distance looked so intimidating, was the gentlest, kindest man anyone could ever know.  He took me under his wing like a father, and we were friends from that moment on.  He was always there for me when I needed help, or advise………or a cocktail………or all three!  
I'll miss you SO much Big Larry, and so will that bunch of bananas at Engman-Taylor.   The Harley gang already misses the best Inspection Engineer ETCO has ever had!

We're all so sad that you've been taken from us, but are glad that you are at peace with Kay, and in the arms of our Lord.
May the Perpetual Light Shine Upon You my dear friend!

May the God of hope and peace bless you and your family in this time of sorrow and keep you in everlasting life.

Larry, my dear friend and neighbor, I will miss you terribly.  Our visits in your cozy kitchen, watching the birds and sports on TV, and reminiscing about our current and past adventures will be treasured memories.  I like to think of you joyfully reunited with your dear Kay. Peace to you and your family.

I just want to say I always thought of Uncle Larry as "The Dancing Bear"-just because of his warm and loving personality and warming smile/heart-always made you feel like you were at home!Thanks Uncle Larry! Catch the big Muskies and Walleyes in heaven!

I was truly sadden when I recieved the news that Uncle Larry had passed away. I had the pleasure to spend time with him and his family doing one of his most favorite past times "fishing". Even though my time with him has been shorten, I will always remember his kindness and gentle spirit. I will truly miss him. My prayers are with the entire Hart family during this difficult time.

Larry was a great man. He could make you feel welcome as if you were a family member ( not just a sister-in-law to his younger brother). 
 I loved the twinkle in his eyes.. and he grills a great pork chop!

Uncle Larry was always the most kind and loving of Uncles. YOu will be dearly missed and thanks for the wonderful memories and enriching sooo many lives uncle Larry!! Love you,

Where to I begin to describe the man who has been “Uncle Larry” to me since I was a young girl?   I will always remember our vacations at Robert's Lake. Kathy and Donna would come with the Hart Family to look after the boys and of course I had to watch over my own brothers while Mom and Dad and Uncle Larry and Aunt Kay would go off on one of their many little “excursions” together. The 4 of them were inseparable for all of their married lives. Their best vacations were those they took together. I especially remember the great time they had when they rented a motor home and traveled throughout the Southwest part of the country. Mom always said it was the best time they ever had on a trip. After Mom died, Kay became my constant motherly confidant and then after Dad died, Larry took over the role of my surrogate father. I loved him as much as my own Dad. He was THE MOST kind and generous man. I could walk in his house anytime, unannounced and would be welcome with open arms. Of course I wouldn't be allowed to leave unless I stayed for dinner…..and Larry became quite a great cook in last 10 years. I was so blessed to be able to be there to say goodbye at the end. Larry, I hope you and your precious Katie Belle, Mom and Dad are all sitting around a card table right now and having a wonderful reunion. I will love you always…..

   Larry was the epitome of generosity and hospitality and I have been the recipient of these qualities more often than I could ever remember.  He enriched many lives along the way and he will be sorely missed.  Laurie Martinson

How I loved my older brother.When I was a very young child,my brother Larry would take me fishing to Lake Tichigan with all his friends and cousins.He would set me up on the pier with bait and rod and I was very content. He then could go on to do his own thing with his speed boat,skis and friends while keeping an eye on me!He also married the Lady I admired as a child.The perfect couple.   Dave Hart Sr.

uncle larry i will miss you very much a very down earth uncle who do anything to help me or anyone my thoughts and prayers to you and your family

Sorry we couldn't come to the funeral.  Larry always made me and my family feel apart of his family. Prayers to all. JILL LANCELLE, Kokomo, Indiana.

Larry will be deeply missed by all. Our prayers are witht you.

I remember the first time I met Larry was at Medical Associates while working with Ginny Hart. From the first time I met him I called him Brother Larry since that was how he was introduced to me. I have known Larry for almost 30 years from fishing with the happy hookers and have meet all the family over the years. All of the Hart brothers have been like brothers to me and I have lost a brother and I will miss Brother Larry.  Jim Foley
