Larry was such a blessing to all those around him. He will be missed greatly. We are praying for the family. What a reunion day there will be some day soon! We love you all. Darrell and Renee Hoffman.
Larry was the most sweetest man I ever knew. I lived beside him when I was young and always called him Daddy. He will definitely be missed by many. He was a blessing to everyone he came in contact with. We all will miss you. Until we meet again. RIP
The Turner family lost a true treasure. Working with Larry was a an absolute delight. He remained brave and positive up until he had to leave Raflatac. The world has lost a very kind soul.
Larry was a great co-worker. He will be missed.
