Dear Joyce & family,
Larry was one of a kind. Surely, one of God’s best. He will be sorely missed but, I know he left his imprint on so many people and will live on in their memories. I know he will live on in my and my sons’ hearts, as we have such wonderful memories of times shared with him and are grateful to have had him as a friend.
I send you my deepest sympathy and in the days to come will pray for our Great Comforter to give you solace and peace as you grieve the loss of such a special person.
With love,
Cindy Rivenbark Wert
