Larry was an amazing person that enjoyed talking about history, especially his time on the ship "The USS Ticonderoga", and when he wasn't spending time with family he would work on jigsaw puzzles, he loved taking rides with his wife, and talking about his upbringing in New Orleans. He will be dearly missed by everyone that new him. Memorial services will be held at a later date at Florida National Cemetery, in Bushnell, Florida.
