My sincere condolences to the family. Larry was very instrumental in my early christian life, not only as my youth pastor, but he also drove the church van that picked me up for church every week. He was a great mentor, friend, and great example of a christian man.
With Fondest Memories.

My heart is broken for Arlene and the family. Larry was a dear friend. We will miss him dearly. The Stevens are not only our dear friends, but part of our mission family. Despite the grief that is felt now, there is the hope of that glad reunion day not far ahead for those in Christ. I anxiously await the time when we can get together around the marriage table of the Lamb to celebrate with those who have gone on before. Holding you all in our thoughts and prayers today. On behalf of the Fannins and Keltys we send our love. Aunty Linda Fannin
