Barbara,
I was sad to hear about Larry’s passing 🥲
I am keeping you in my thoughts&prayers🙏
Barbara, sympathy for Larry’s passing. I have not seen Larry for many years. Is there a time set for his internment in Gadsden. I am his first cousin, son of Uncle Floyd’s youngest brother Earnest. If possible I would like to like to pay my respects at the Cemetery.
