I am so sorry to hear of Larry’s passing.My husband and I worked with Larry for years on the Ingles sets.Larry was such a kind person and would do any thing to help others.May God bless all of you and you are in my prayers.
My deepest sympathies are sent to Larry’s family. Though we have not seen each other for years, we had recently reconnected on Facebook. We went to Aycock, Hall Fletcher, and graduated together in the Class of 1967 from Lee H. Edwards High School. We were in Cub Scouts together as well. I pray that his family will receive comfort in the knowledge that others care and share in your loss. Well done thou good and faithful servant.
I am sending my love and prayers to the Robinson family. Sean I really wanted to be there with you and Linda this Sat. but my broken ankle would not permit it. To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord, and we know that is where Larry is. May the Holy Spirit comfort you and the family during this time. Love you all,
Dear Linda, Lisa, Sean and all of your family; I’m so sorry for your loss. My family and I send you our love and prayers.
With our deepest condolences to The Robinson Family & Friends.
We hope you will find great comfort in this scripture, Revelation 21: 4.
I just read about Larrys death. We went to school together from Aycock through Lee Edwards. Larry was a great guy, and my friend. May God give you comfort, strength and peace that only he can do.
