He worked for many years at Staker Parsons where he recently retired. He also did welding fabrication, and was a very talented taxidermist.
Larry was often found outdoors hunting, fishing, or 4X4ing with his family, friends, and club members.

Larry believed you should stand up for what you think is right and should fight for it and he lived by example!
