Each day while in Guam, he enjoyed going to the Hilton with Jim Sullivan, who treated Larry like his own father.
Larry has passed on to all of us his "Joys of Life"; his love of God, family, the Bible, food, outside, fun and music.
All friends and family are invited to share a celebration of his life on the Sabbath, November 13 at the Seventh-day Aventist Church. For Info., please call 423-314-1686.
