He was also close to his Uncle Dana McGowan and Aunt Jean.

He loved his Bonnie, Brittney and had great delight in his Great Grandson Isaac, and was looking forward to his newest one

Graveside services will be held at the Millinocket Cemetery at 11:00 a.m. Saturday, July 23rd, with Pastor Allen Archer officiating, who was a good friend. There will be a get together at the American Legion in Millinocket, following the graveside service.

We would like to thank the Old Town EMT’s and the Penobscot Sheriff’s office and others that were there. We would also give our thanks to the two ladies that helped Larry out his chores and taking him places. Though I hate to say it, he was a diehard NYY baseball, also a GBP’s Football fan. He had many friends in the area. He had a good friendship with Bill McKinley’s family and their Law Firm.
