Larry’s job took our family to places in Alabama, Louisiana, as well as overseas in Norway and England. In 1982, it brought them to The Woodlands, Texas where they resided until his retirement. After retirement, they spent time in Waco, Texas and Lexington, Tennessee before settling in Montgomery, Texas.

His family will always remember him as a loving, supportive father and a faithful man to the Lord, our God. He had a wonderful sense of humor, loved dogs and enjoyed reading.
