Larry will be certainly be missed at the Caledonia Resource/Senior Center where we work. He had a wonderful sense of humor and would light up the room with his personality. He was a man who genuinely cared for people and it just won't be same without him at our euchre, hand and foot, and bingo matches as well as our holiday parties. He will hold a special place in our hearts. Our sympathy to his family in this time of loss. Love, Sherri Stehouwer, Barb Nemecek, Monique Brennan, and Denise Blunk
