  4. Your life was shortened however the monumental impact that you made on many lives will live on. You were a strong person whose tomfoolery would bring laughter to many. As your days grew near you still made me laugh when I came to visit & sometimes that is a hard thing to do. I look at Shawn & I see your domineering attitude in her & your laughter in Shannon. You’re going to be missed by many however you have gone to a better place those of us still here are the ones who got left behind. Enjoy the ride, Terri

  6. You got through the pearly gates of heaven before us. One thing I know is that you were a true man. Yes, you will be missed and thank you for continuing to share fun times even in the past two years. I will always think about you with every sunrise and sunset. Boy Luder (Larry), didn’t we always have a lot of fun in Kansas (our home), with some of our true friends? I will always keep those memories in my heart. There is an old song ‘Your gonna miss me when I’m gone’ and this is certainly true. You made my world brighter just by being in it. This says it all. I planted some of your favorite flowers today (vinca), or binka as you would say. I know that if you were here, you would have been with me taking the trip to Cox’s plant farm. Be seeing you someday. Love Bob (Marilyn)

  7. I’m very sorry for your loss. May the God of all comfort provide the needed comfort for you during this difficult time. He promises at Revelation 21:4 that ‘He will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more. Neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.’ My deepest condolences.

  8. It saddens me to hear that you are no longer with us. We were neighbors for many years and you were always supportive and helpful. I think of you as I pass your house each day. My deepest condolences to your family. Rhonda
