To all the family and friends, I am so very sorry for your loss. Larry was wonderful and we all have such great memories of those good ol' days. He was a good friend and a true musician who loved to play for us all. (Always a harp handy...) My favorite memory is when he and I were hanging out together one night and needed snacks at the store. All we could scrape up was one silver dollar. On the entire drive in his truck, from my house on E Street to Jefferson Food Market, we sang, "I've got one more silver dollar..." Rest in love and peace, Larry.

Larry to me to my first concert (the Who). I was only allowed to go because my brother Bob was also going. I'll always remember Larry with his harmonica, really setting the beat to whatever music the others were plunking out on their guitars etc. I loved it!. The last time I saw Larry was at Gene's funeral and it was like old times. I was just thinking last week (ON THE 16th !!!) that I wished I had Larry's address or phone number so I could send him a birthday card. Though we didn't see ea. other for years at a time, I really miss him. My condolences to your family. Kathy
