This is very sad. I know I speak for many of his co-workers at OKI in saying he immensely well-liked. He quietly did his work, and that work was excellent. Larry was fun and he was a happy contributor to our many employee get-togethers. We all wish the family our prayers and support as you remember a good, good man.

I am very sorry to hear about Larry's passing. I worked with him at OKI, I was new (12 yrs ago) and he was always a very nice colleague to all of us. Quiet but steady. He enjoyed our annual staff holiday party and other gatherings. May he rest in peace.

Sad news. Larry was a retired OKI team member. I worked with Larry for a long time. He was here when I started and was always kind and helpful to me, especially in my early years. Bob Koehler, OKI Deputy Executive Director.
