BJ Spencer McCauley here. I've known Larry since North Junior High and Palmer High School. He was a wonderful human being - top notch! I remember the hay ride his dad arranged for some of his classmates! What a wonderful family! So sorry for the loss of this dear man. Wish he could have lived decades more!

I'm an RN who was in the PACU at the Old St. Francis and worked with Dr. Dewell for years and years. He was always kind and a gentleman. He treated the nurses and everyone with respect. He also treated his patients the same. I'm so sorry for your loss. He was a very special man.

I will always remember Dr. Dewell as one of the best docs at CSOG. He had a heart of gold, and amazing skills as a surgeon. I have not seen him in many years, but I am sorry to learn of his passing.
