Larry will be missed by many. I met Larry in 2007 when he was active with the Red Cross. He managed local hurricane shelters for many years. He is also known as Papa Bear and catered many Barbecue functions. Later on he built his own karaoke computer system and invited singers to sing and enjoy his cooking. We are all going to miss you. I will miss you.
