Conway, AR Monday, June 28, 2010 Lib, Randy and family, I am so very sad because my Uncle Larry is gone but I have to be comforted in knowing he is with Jesus and Daddy. When I sent him that card, you said he had just recently wondered if he had made a difference in anyone's life and that was certainly an understatement because I know that me and my kids loved him with all our hearts. So now that he is no longer in pain, please know we are praying and are here for you if you need anything. He left us with many memories to treasure.Kay Brown
