I wish I had gotten to ride with you. Tomorrow is never promised. But I know you are with the rest of our angels up there. You won’t be forgotten and you were so loved. RIH Primo.

April 20, 2024 at 9:02 pmDear friend/Co-worker, your everyday laughter and smiling face will be deeply missed by many.
Listening to stories about your children and grandchildren and how much you loved them was always a joy and a reminder for myself to always love family no matter what. I can’t thank you enough for all your support in my own personal goals and just being a true friend. Viva

You always had a smile.on your face. You would always tell me when you came into the speedway I worked at you would learn how to make the food as soon as you were done unloading the fuel. You were so much fun to joke around with. Until we meet again.

Your journey to heaven was to soon I thought we had more time. I enjoyed growing up with you and spending time together as adults. You were so proud of your sobriety so was I. You would still show up to our cousin nights even if it would only be me Gloria and tia Carmen at times lol. I love you so much and miss you already. Thus far this one’s a hard one

April 21, 2024 at 8:43 amGoing to miss you Larry. Mose days I loaded multiple times out of the terminal and always looked to see if you were coming in or there already. Our shouts (what up) across the rack and our many conversations were always a highlight to my day. Your family should know that you impacted many people’s life in positive ways even while you were away from home. Your presence alone was very uplifting. The world is a much different place since you are gone. But heaven is a much luckier place to have you in it. God bless you brother.

April 21, 2024 at 2:20 pmLarry was more than just my neighbor, he was my friend. Viva encouraged me to go out and live life. He never knew it but that advice freed me from fear and isolation. He was truly a Godsend.
We miss him and will always appreciate the time he spent in our life.
Until we see you again Neighbor.
