I was so sorry to see Larry's name in the newspaper. I called him once about two years ago and spoke to his daughter instead. I really wish I could have met him. It is a bit surreal to see ones own name in the paper (he was born at least 20 years before) especially when we just lived in adjacent towns. I believe that his time is not done, us veterans don't know when to end our service. I can almost see him starting his next chapter of service....in Heaven as an Angel and continuing to serve a greater purpose. My prayers are with his family.
Sincerely,
Larry Lee Garrett

Dear Rodney and Kim - We are so sorry for your loss. You took such good care of your dad and helped him know how much he's loved. This is such a difficult time we know. Please know you are in our thoughts and especially our prayers during this sad time. Praying for God to wrap His loving arms around you and give you peace.
