I worked building security with Larry at the Plaza of the Rockies when I moved to Colorado Springs from Hot Springs, Arkansas in 1993. I loved living in Colorado Springs. We lived there in grade school too when our Dad was in the Air Force. My best memories are when we were living there. My condolences. Richard Gross P S. Larry was always on time exactly at 8:00 a.m. every morning to relieve us. It reminds me of a saying they say about our Lord. "Always on time"

I remember Larry well. I always thought it was cool that he lived above a grocery store. I was at the cemetery when part of his ashes were buried next to his parents graves. He was a good guy when we were growing up together. I remember sister Karen also.

Rosita, I hope you are doing well!

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Karen Hull Bish and other close-knit family members of Larry during this time of mourning and healing. I only got the rare opportunity to meet Larry a few times over the years even though we were first cousins which meant he was very special person.

Larry and I have been friends since the 1st grade. I always thought he was cool because he lived over a grocery store. We have communicated many times. Recently he told me about his planned trip to Hawaii with his wife. I hope it did happen. We graduated PHS in 1959.

My condolences go Rosita and the remainder of family. Larry was a good man and I will miss the e-mails. Hang in Karen

Larry and I became friends at Lincoln school on the first day of school for both of us. We remained good friends through high school and even now. To me, Larry was "Lash Larue" and I was "Whip Wilson"during our grade school days as we played "cowboys" as kids did in the early years. We exchanged emails as late as a couple of weeks ago. To his family, Larry was a true friend!!I will miss him......Melvin Powell
