My deepest condolences go out to the Gloria and his family and friends. Larry was a very good man and very honest and a decent person. We were best of friends through high school and Morton College. I will always remember the many good times we had and all the adventures we shared growing up. While I lost track of Larry's life's accomplishments I never forgot about the many life experiences we once shared.

I spent many years working with Larry at EMD, and I am so sorry for his passing. He was one of the most creative people I know, but worked in electronics the way other people paint. And he had the greatest sense of humor, and irreverence. I am very sorry for his family. I know EMD suffered a great loss when he left.
