I will never forget when Larry came up to the lake and we went for a pontoon ride.
Larry couldn't swim but he liked to pack a cooler and go for a ride around the lake. after the ride ended,Larry,fully dressed and holding the cooler went to step
off the boat onto the pier.The boat moved and Larry fell feet first in between
the boat and the pier; the cooler never hit the water.Larry saved the beer! Another
job well done! You had to love the guy!

I will never forget comparing my pregnant belly with yours when I was pregnant with Xayvion. We challenged each other to see who had the bigger stomach. You always said that mine was bigger however we all knew that wasnt true lol. I will never forget how great you were to my mom and my kids as well. You are an amazing man a little off the wall sometimes but that just made you who you were. I am going to miss the rum and cokes you made for me, the laughter you gave me and the teasing we did to each other. I love you Larry and you will always remain in my heart. Jaden says he loves you papa Larry.

When I first met Larry I knew he was someone special. He was just perfect for Mindy. He was always making us laugh and telling us jokes. He could always put a smile on my face. He will truly be missed by this family.
God Bless I love you Larry. Love Jan GoodpasterPosted by jan goodpaster from Fort Wayne, IN - son-in-law on
