Saddened to learn of Larry's passing. He was a great man that I called friend. A lot of laughs at the Hole. Soar with the spirit in the sky Larry.

I am very sorry to hear of Larry’s passing.  My condolence to the Ertmoed family. 
Larry, Lloyd, Louie and I were friends from our Preteen years.  We went to the same school - Wilson. 
One time at a school picnic we were out on the lagoon in a canoe. Larry wanted to tip us over and would lean one way and I then would lean the other way. We all did end up in the water in the lagoon. 
And we all liked to go fishing and exploring around Bailey’s Lake. 
RIP my old friend. Don Cook

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Louis and the whole family. Larry will be missed.  Sharon Andrae and Stan Friese

I have known Larry for years, He was a real  true life character. He always treated me good, He had a kind heart and Loved Gina and those grandkids and his family most in life 
R,I,P, Larry my friend 

Larry was a childhood friend from Bailey' s lake to Vietnam and back. Had some good times and of coarse some down time, but friends till the end. Later my friend 😂


Larry was always so much fun. I remember being at one of the houses with him and Sharon and he marched around and had us 3 girls marching with him and singing the marine hymn as loud as we could. He was a big kid at heart and enjoyed life. He will be missed! 

Louie, lloyd and families,
Our condolences to you on your loss.
Ron and  Claire

Niece Rhonda Gray, was a little Uncle Larry’s girl when she was a child, and she said it best. “Exciting places, so much fun, giant heart & competition dance moves!” With Larry I had the time of my life! He leaves so many with belly laugh memories as he celebrates eternal life! Condolences to the huge loving Eertmoed family. Peace be with Gena, Nick, Ray, and Jac.  🎈🎈 Heaven is our Home

David and I are sorry to hear of Larry's passing.  He will be Sadly missed by all who knew and he will also be remembered by all who knew him.  He showed up at Central City or Blackhawk, Co. one year and Mom and Dad didn't  even know he was in CO.  and he saw them on the street and yelled "Gey Aunt Doris".  We were shocked to see him.  We had a very nice visit with him.    You never knew where he might show up.  He always had a smile on his face.   Sympathy and Prayers go out to the Families.  Take Care and Rest in peace.  The Falkingham's in Idaho and Brower Family in Wyoming.   



Sorry to hear about Larry.  He has gone to a better place.  I have a lot of great memories of Larry!  Thank you for your service.   Rest In Peace .  

I remember when my parents would go on business trips, and Larry and Sharon would stay with my sisters and me. They took us to the most exciting places, and we had so much fun! Larry would help me deliver my 93 papers on my route, not because I asked, but because he wanted to help. Over the years, we would always reminisce about those days. He also reminded me of how we ate many Slim Jims! Larry loved to dance, and we danced to many songs at my sister’s retirement party in 2016. I also remember ending up at the Hole in the Wall after many family reunions with Larry, Carla, and Dave.  My deepest condolences go out to Gena and her boys. He is going to be missed by many people. ❤️🌹

We will all miss Larry very much! Larry was a very giving person! He didn't have the easiest life! Larry served his Country and it affected his health a lot. He contacted Agent Orange in Vietnam. That didn't make his life easy at all! He also has some devastating things in his personal life that affected him a lot! He lost his girlfriend in an automobile accident and that affected him a lot! He married and had 1child Gina but the marriage ended but he loved his daughter dearly! They were 2 peas in a pod! Gina took very good care of her Dad! He had a big loving family and they will miss Larry immensely.  Larry had a few deamons in his life but now he is at peace and in a better place! We will miss him a lot!  See you again someday!💙 RIP
