I met Larry when I was 3-1/2 years old when we moved in across the street from his Grandparents. His Mom and mine were friends. We had so much fun growing up. We played baseball and football in our yard whenever he was in town. After High School we lost track of each other. We would see each other every once in a while at a gas station or in a bar having an adult beverage. When he came back and started to work at C&L Hardware we re-lived our adventures as kids. He was an awesome man. I will miss him. RIP Larry.
I went to school with Larry he was a funny and a well liked person. I’m sure he will be missed by all, rest in piece my friend!
We are very sorry to hear about Larry. I have some great memories of motorcycle trips and poker runs with Larry and Sandy. I can still hear Larry’s laugh and remember his great sense of humor. Sandy and family, know we are thinking of you and will always remember Larry.
Curt and I want to express our condolences to the Lemon family for your loss. Sincerely Jody & Curt.
So sorry for your loss. He was a very nice caring person. He will be missed.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family. Larry was one of a kind. I enjoyed the time I worked with him. He will be missed.
Am unable to attend as we had to make an appointment in advance to see my Mom in tulsa along with other family. Mom is 94 and the Doctors don’t give her much time.
I know Larry would understand.It was such a pleasure to have worked with Larry and will miss him. I felt blessed to work along side with him. I never had a person of his caliber to work for before. More of a brother. Miss him.
Sandy, you are in my thoughts at this difficult time. Sending prayers to you and the fsmily.
Sandy, your Larry was always the best face to see anywhere, whether in C&L, passing by on the street or those rare times at a table in the Tasting Room. Always a smile and a sincere and enthusiastic interest in the lives of everyone around him. He is already missed. You and your family will remain in my thoughts and prayers. I am deeply sorry for your loss of your dear husband.
Kathy and I were shocked to learn the news of Larry’s passing. Larry was a one of a kind, I always thought that he was the coolest cat who always walked the walk and talked the talk, never seen him above low anxiety…ever. We hope that you find peace and eternal love. Kathy & Ray
