Rest In Peace Larry.
I worked with Larry at Queensbury High School……. he was such a hard worker and would do anything for the staff members or the “kiddos”. I’m sending my deepest condolences to Larry’s family.
Respected by staff and students alike. Larry was part of the glue that held Queensbury High together. He was one of a kind and will live on in our memories for a long time.
Larry and I met in 1974 when I started work at Hudson Pulp and Paper. He was a very true friend. Everyone loved Larry for his great sense of humor and huge heart. I am thankful for the impact Larry made on my life. My heartfelt condolences to the family.
My thoughts are with the family.
I worked with Larry in the mid 70’s at Hudson Pulp and Paper. He was just all around fun guy to work with. Always would make me laugh.
RIP Larry !!
