Robert Savo wrote a sympathy message

“I first met Larry over 20 years ago at our Sportsmen’s Club. After learning what his line of business was we hired him as a supplier supporting us for many years. Beyond the business relationship we became great friends and supported each other based on who had what particular skill sets. Larry was one of a kind always willing to help others and had a wonderful handle on life. He will be sadly missed. Bob Savo”
