"I had the privilege of working with Larry at Farmers Market in Lake City several years ago. He was always smiling and had stories to share. I do not recall ever seeing him mad. Enjoyed working with him and have many memories from my first job at the grocery store. He talked about his wife and children often and was such a hard worker. I am so thankful to hear he got saved recently. My heart hurts for his wife, children, grandkids, and family. Larry I will miss your smile and I have faith knowing I will see you again one day in heaven! Prayers for the family! Love and God bless!
