    So sorry to hear about Larry-we spent a lot of time on the ice together- at least 1 year with the lacombe juveniles in grade 12+ intramurals, alumni reunions, etc over the years- this is much too soon & shocking to have happened- I'm trusting you're leaving this in the hands of the Lord- it's beyond my comprehension- we have the hope of a grand reunion when the pain of this existence will be a distant memory- my thoughts and prayers are with you & your family

    I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of myself and all the sisters and their extended family to offer my condolences, thoughts and prayers to Lorraine, Charissa, Rorik and their extended families as well. My sisters and I are all shocked and saddened by our brother's passing. Larry is the youngest of 5 children, I am the closest in age at 69 then Joan 71, Shari 73 and Lucy 76. We will all miss him and we want to give Lorraine, Charissa, Rorik and their respective spouses and children all our love and sympathy at this time. I was the closest to him of all the sisters and the last time I spoke with him was just a few days before Thanksgiving and we had a very good sibling conversation. I will miss him forever, Larry rest in peace my friend. Love Lynn XO
