Larry was well known as a hard worker everywhere he was employed whether it was one of the local plants, truck driving, framing houses or working at a sawmill.

He met the love of his life, Carolyn Simmons, when he was a teenager working at M & W. This coming May they would have celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary.

He enjoyed life on their farm where they raised cows, tobacco, gardens, four children, ten grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, and he loved them all. Larry loved fishing, hunting, farming, and his family. One of his greatest joys was spending time with his family. He was irreplaceable and will be greatly missed.
