Hi Jo Anne, Scot & family
We were so sad to hear of Larry passing. He was a very good friend for many years. He would always offer to help on any project we were doing. He spent many hours helping to build our cottage & going fishing, there were so many laughs. Larry had many good times bowling on the Greenwich Rebels bowling team and yes the Fire Dept and the hockey team. He will be missed by all those who knew him.
Cheers my old friend this one is for you.

It is with heavy hearts that we say farewell to another member of our family. Look back at the memories and reflect on those good times that made you who are today, in the life you all created as a family. They will be tears of joy and sorrow as you hear all the memories spoke by others. Take peace in knowing he is now upon us watching and guiding us each and every day. He will never be far from you as he will always remain in your heart. Take care all of you as you lean on each other for the moral support you all need from each other over the next few day. I will be thinking of you all.

I am so sorry to hear about Larry's Passing. Larry was our milk man for many years. He became part of our family growing up. I remember waiting for him to arrive so I could get the slirppies or beep from the truck. He was always pleasant, friendly and didn't hesitate to stop and chat for a bit before he continued on his daily route. My condolence to his family, may you find peace in knowing how many people thought highly of your husband/father.

Our deepest condolences go out to Jo-anne,scott and all sisters& brothers and to all family members on Larrys passing.It is hard to put into words anything that will help ease the sorrow you feel .Larry always had a smile and took the time to greet any one he incountered with a kind and assuring manner.Myself over the pastyears had the honor and privilege of working with two of larrys brothers,and may i say that his family are one of the most frendily,careing closely bonded family i have ever known.(God Bess You All).Even when not feeling the best larry took the time to talk and give a few minutes of his time.Just about a month ago we were talking up at the hospital about retirement and his words to me are imbedded in my mind (If you have something you want to do DO IT DONT WAIT)for this my friend i thank you and i will never forget.
To all Sisters and Brothers remember be strong,take care of each other as you have shown over&over and with all the memories you have you will get through this.
So to all the family take care of one another,be strong .remember you are blessed to have each other love to all and God Bless

Please accept my condolences on your loss.
I found comfort in the hope the Bible offers for our loved ones at Psalms 37:29 which says, "The righteoous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it."
We are assured by God in His Word the Bible that after the earth is cleansed of current troubled conditions, it will be restored to a paradise like the Garden of Eden as He originally purposed. Then our loved ones can return to life on earth in good health. (Isaiah 33:24)
Then there will be no more sorrow or pain as we are promised at Revelation 21:4. It reads, "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore..."
I hope these words will bring you a measure of solace in your time of loss.
— Sandra Sullivan
To say that Larry was well liked would be an understatement.
Jo,Scott my deepest sympathies to both of you. Larry and I had many great conversations over the years. He was certainly a morning person, very hard worker.Larry took the time to always ask you questions, was interested in your life your life. He simply cared about others. Like everyone else has mentioned, he will be well
missed.
— Jason Wood
The Vaughan boys were always spoken of so often to me. I can remeber the last days of his brother Shirley on the Kings Transit but was not aware his name was different. Do many years past and so many memories repeated from friends of different ones they knew and worked with to me and the description of them to me were as I would say when I met them when were living in the very few years prevous to there death. Hard to replace such thoughtfulness to me when I had mine pass away.

A Heartfelt Sympathy goes to you all.
So sorry that time caused me to not be as close to the family as I used to be as a teen.
Wayne and I, Ruthie and Sharon were close friends but all of you treated me well.
You all are a great, strong family and the loss of Larry is like a dagger in your heart.
We feel your pain and wish you the strength to go on.
God Bless You All.
