To my dearest friend, Sharon. I hope you can take some solace in the fact that you did everything humanly possible for him these last few months. It’s been a long, hard journey for both of you but you did it together. Though I didn’t have the pleasure of knowing him, I’m sure he’s very proud of you.
All our love to you, Joe and your family.
Larry was in my opinion a very funny and great guy, he was one of the more personable people I had the pleasure to work with during my years at Stelco, so sorry for your loss and may God Bless him and his family at this sad time. Gerald(Jerry) Dr.Dolittle Martin 🙂 Psalm 46:10

Very saddened to hear about the passing of my Uncle Larry. He was such a kind man with a great sense of humor. I have many, many fond memories of being at Nana and Papa’s cottage in the summer as a kid and spent a lot of time next door at my Uncle Lawrence and Aunt Shirley’s. Our deepest sympathy goes out to Sharon, Terry and Brian and the rest of the family. It was very comforting to know he is no longer suffering and that his family was by his side during his time of need.
Sorry for your loss. I worked with your dad in group12. And he was a great guy to work with and to know him.
Sharon,
My deepest sympathy to you and your family. Take comfort that in his last days you all ensured he was treated with love and respect.
