    My brother was one in a million! He was kind, he was generous, he had great wisdom and awesome sense of business and he was a man of great faith, he was very humorous and he is loved very much. He cared for all who came in his path. I loved an admired the man he became. He will be sorely missed. He is one of the lights that God places on earth . . . the world will miss the soul and spirit of Larry. Love always and ever . . . your sister, LaVerne.

    Larry will be missed by everyone that had the pleasure to know him. We had a working relationship for close to 35 years. We shared a love for the Penguins and all other Pittsburgh Teams. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and everyone that know him.

    For almost 17 years I had the privilege, the honor to work with this Gentle Giant. He was much more than my boss, he was like my Father. I could not have worked for a better man than he. He will definitely be missed.
