Mr. Larry was a member of U.S Army in the early 1970’s. This is likely where he gained his love for guns. Larry retired from Acme roofing in Bloomington, IL. He was an avid Harley rider and enjoyed the outdoors. In the last decade or so his favorite past times included reading western books, The Holy Bible and caring for his dog. Larry’s greatest joy in life was being a grandpa! He had an extremely close bond with his 8 year old grandaughter, Ainsley. Larry was vocal about having made peace with God and was ready to see his mother beyond the pearly gates of heaven. Larry will be so deeply missed by those who loved him. HonerableMention: Lloyd Edwards, Mr. Larry’s best friend in Mississippi. Pete Wheeler, Larry’s life long best friend, who he wished to reconnect with but never got the chance.
