Larry served as Corpsmen with the U.S. Navy stationed at Great Lakes during the Vietnam War. He is a graduate of the University of Nebraska with a double major in business administration and science. He loved sports and continued to play softball until in his 60's when he "retired" from the game because it took longer to put on all his braces than it took to play the game. He was a loving husband, father and grandfather who loved children and they loved him back. Larry was the Director of Pulmonary Medicine at Bishop Clarkson Memorial Hospital in Omaha as well as Shawnee Mission Medical Center in Overland Park, Ks. Larry ended his career in medicine working with Pulmonary Medical Associates in North K.C. educating and evaluating patients with sleep apnea and other pulmonary conditions.
Larry had a giant heart and will always be remembered by his family, friends, church family at New Haven Seventh-day Adventist Church, where he served as a deacon, and patients for his love and compassion. The family suggests memorial contributions be sent to the Lewy Body/Alzheimer's Association or Renewed Hope Food Pantry, New Haven Church, 8714 Antioch Road, Overland Park, KS.
