Larry will be deeply missed by his twin brother Garry, their extended family, and his countless friends throughout the Junior Forest Warden world and beyond.
Garry shares these words:
"I thank everyone for their kind words about Larry. He was a great brother and friend and he even looked like me".We know that many of you have fond memories of Larry and we would like to hear them. Please send your favorite stories, photos, and recollections to treemail@ajfwa.ca. We will compile these into a memorial to be presented at National Camp and in Tree Mail.

Our deepest sympathies to Garry, we are all here for you as long as you need us my friend.
ReplyDeleteSo sad to hear of Larry's passing. Feels like we lost a piece of our history.
ReplyDeleteI never met Larry, only had a few yarns with him on the phone from here in Newfoundland, but he obviously had great care for and interest in JFW. I'm sure he will be missed. Kind regards to Larry's friends and family from JFW Newfoundland and Labrador.

ReplyDeleteMay the winds forever carry Larry's laugh
May the smoke wafting from your pipe drift in his semblance
May the sun share the warmth of his smile
May your love for him embrace you and keep you safe
We are with you and yours in thought and prayer.
Garry

There are many to help you through this time and forward, just need to ask. Keep the best memories closest to your heart. Love Lynda and Brent Zimmer
Our deepest sympathies to Garry as well. Larry will very much be missed. Even helped teach my son to make a pipe! Yes, my son did try smoking old man's beard with it and made the rest of the kids in the family try it! Just one of the many interesting times :) Ross & Sara Maxwell and kids - Hannah, Jonathan, Amy, Emma, & Kimberly
ReplyDeleteOur condolences to you...many great memories at Neighbours and the legion. Take care of yourself through this grief, Garry. From our hearts, Dale and Natasha Kapitaniuk
ReplyDeleteGary,I first met Larry in Meadow Lake as a scout leader and suggest the following is true of him, "A true Scout is looked up to by others as a fellow who can be trusted, a fellow who will not fail to do his duty however risky and dangerous it may be, a fellow who is jolly and cheery no matter how great the difficulty before him" (Lord Baden-Powell) Larry was a true Scout Rhys Beaulieu
