Sincere sympathy to Larry’s family. What a great guy! I worked with him at Goodyear back in the day and then trained a couple racehorses for him. Managed to win one with an old campaigner named Tan Boots at Detroit Racecourse. I moved on from Nebraska and stayed In the race game and can honestly say Larry was without doubt the nicest guy I ever trained for or for that matter ever worked with. A side note, Larry went to school in Shelby with my mother, Jeanne (Cook) Walsh who just turned 90.
My heartfelt sympathy to your whole family. May you find comfort in the memories you hold in your hearts. Janet (Hansen) Schwartz.
Belinda and family. I was saddened to hear that your dear Dad entered Eternity earlier this month – but rejoice to hear that he had truly come to the Lord prior to his passing. I’m sure that the love you have expressed to me is only equal to the feelings of the entire family. Having only recently experienced the loose of my dear wife of 40 years and a sister of 77 years, it is a joy to me to know that they have both entered Eternal rest with their Lord and Savior. Please be assured of our continued prayers as you
Mourn your loose of your earthly Father – now in the Hands of His Heavenly Father.
Suzanne…I am so truly sorry to hear of your father’s passing. I know this will leave a hole in your heart as the two of you were so close. Remember, nothing nor anyone can take away your memories. Cherish them.
