I have many fond memories of Larry when we were growing up. Larry was our smart cousin and we were just a jumbled mess of energy and I'm sure we drove him crazy. He taught us about his snakes and we bothered him endlessly about his allergies. Now that I'm a mom, I understand that some people just have allergies and Benadryl helps. Sorry for asking you about that so many times Larry. You even taught your cat to use the toilet. Wow! You wrote some books in your adult life and I know your mom loved you a bunch, and still does. You are gone too soon for sure, but we hold many memories dear that we shared with you, Larry. I hope you felt that way about the times we shared as well. With much love, Amy.
It is so very hard to imagine Larry being gone with him only being 2 months younger than our daughter Amy, fifteen months younger than our son Phil and a few years younger than our son Dan. Dan, Phil and Amy always brought chaos in an otherwise quiet household. Our kids were loud and rowdy (typical) while Larry was quiet and studious. Jane, put up with us at least once a year and while these cousins were different, they learned from each other (as it should be) Larry was extremely smart and academic and realized the potential of the internet years ahead of the rest of the family. We all “got it” but much later. Rest in peace. With love, Aunt Jean and Uncle Jim
later.
