My heart is broken for you Deb. We became fast friends over the years at the bank. It was always evident to anyone who knew you both just how much he adored you! Even we had to call you in California to confirm what banking needed to be done where. Larry was definitely one of a kind. Always pushing through no matter the problem, just find a way around. Many many hugs to you and your family.
