Carolyn and family, We are so sorry for your loss. I will always remember how for many years we always sat directly behind you and Larry at church. He would always welcome us and offer us a piece of peppermint...and later he offered peppermint to our grandchildren. Also...I could sit for hours and listen to Larry pray. His prayers would just touch my heart so much. Please know we are praying for all of you to have peace, strength and comfort from God above. HE will carry you through this storm. Take care and God bless all of you.
