RIP Larry

@Ivorythumper correct on his daughter’s name IT. The 3 children are hers. And she has a brother. These were Larry’s kids from the wife who was a psychologist/therapist.

Larry won't be here this Christmas season to tell us about how he paid the bill at the grocery checkout for someone he thought might need the help during the holidays.
If I remember correctly, they weren't always grateful, but most were.
That was usually a nice Christmas story.

Sigh.
In paradisum deducant te angeli
in tuo adventu suscipiant te martyres,
et perducant te in civitatem sanctam Jerusalem.Chorus angelorum te suscipiat,

While I do miss him, I always cringed a bit at that story. I can't speak for others, but usually if I do something charitable I try really hard to not make it known. I don't know why, maybe something subconscious from my past, but I find more joy out of no one else knowing. Maybe I'm being selfish, LOL.

I pulled up a message from him a couple of days ago - even though there were only a few words. It felt like I was hearing his voice - at least my imagination of how his voice sounded. I suspect we weren't the only folks shocked by his death. In any event, miss him.

He didn't name names or point fingers, and this is an "anonymous" internet forum.

That had a lot to do with how he was villified on the forums.

Amen.

He was a character, that is for sure. I have never decided how much was just for the internet and how much was real.
His passing was shock for sure however.

Did you ever discover what became of his wife or mother?
I believe that his mother is still alive. There is some question if he had a wife or not.
I don't think there is any question, other than formal or common-law.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

Could be. I just thought it was a bit strange that the wife was not mentioned in his funeral note.
