Larry's faith was first in his life followed by his family. His greatest joy was spending time with his family and grandchildren. Larry was loved by many, which was easy to do given his good nature and genuine love for the people around him. He had a great sense of humor and employed it during his work. He was always thankful for his dental staff and his patients who he considered family.
