I don’t even know where to begin to say how special this Man & his family are to me and my family. There were always Sunday mornings and even sitting down to dinner any night of the week. We were invited into their lives and their home with open arms.
I will never forget things like the all night “Rock-a-Thon” in his home to raise money for youth outings and him encouraging us to play instruments and sing in church. Also the time I got in trouble for playing “Another one bites the dust” on the bass because Travis had taught me how. (no, not during service ) And the time we all got preached to for sitting to close in church. “Day light”, He wanted to be able to look out and see day light on the pews between us. If you were a teenager at Sunny Side Baptist Church you know what I am talking about.
From the young girl I was then to the woman I am today, you have forever left an impression in my heart and my soul and I thank you. Even though you will be missed, go rest high Brother Larry.
