Sorry to hear about Larry’s passing. He was a great person to work for. I spent 14 years with him in the Air Guard at Toledo. He was by far the best I worked with in my time in both the active and reserve forces.
Cindy, Jim and Family,
So sorry for the death of your precious Father. May your heart find peace in the memories you have of him. Thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time!
So sorry for your loss. God bless you Cindy and your family. May he Rest In Peace.
