Larry you were one of a kind ❤️ We're all going to miss your bad jokes, and not so appropriate humor. I'm grateful every day that your Son Greg, gave me the best gift of all, my son Dylan and granddaughter Phoenix. Love you Lar ❤️

Thanks for having a hockey jacket ready for me in July when I landed! I will always remember that you had a customer service representative kick someone off a flight so that I could get home! The teeth on my forehead and burning caterpillars nests in Orillia. Ski dooing and more. Thanks for being a great uncle to a younger me. xoxoxo
