Carol and I just noticed that your father passed away. We are both sadden and joyful in the Lord over his passing. Saddened for your loss but joyful knowing that our brother in Christ is now with his Savior. What an asset Larry was for me when I was a pastor in Grant. Always an encourager as a member and a wise and gifted Elder. Always a smile, never a cross word, a empathetic listener and a Christlike character. It was so good to meet him and Martha in the thrift store after I retired from many years in Iowa and got reacquainted. Many a Tuesday we would sit and chat. He continued to be a friend and an encourager to me even then. I thank the Lord for knowing your Dad. PS Girls, do you remember when you baby sat our twins, good memories!
