Re: Passing of a fellow rider and great friend
Met him at the NGW rally, too. Seemed like a fine man. Sorry to hear of his passing.

DAMN DAMN DAMN!!!
Very sorry to read this. I am not sure exactly which events but I had met Larry for certain 2 times and I think 3 or 4 times. Great guy that had a serious love for these old machines.

Re: Passing of a fellow rider and great friend
TERRIBLE NEWS!!!
I believe Larry came to all of my rallies and I just visited with Larry at another event a few months ago. Great guy who will be sorely missed.
Prayers and condolences to his family and many friends.

Three amazing Grandsons and a beautiful granddaughter, four great kids, two crazy cats, a husband who is fun to have around and two great motorcycles, one is an 1200 Interstate currently apart being painted and a Harley. (hey, I believe in riding, and everyone should ride what they love. And I happen to have MBS)

Re: Passing of a fellow rider and great friend
I could not place Larry until the picture was posted. I sat across from them at the dinner. They were a comedy team that kept that end of the table entertained. I am saddened by his passing. It was nice to get to know him for a short time.

Re: Passing of a fellow rider and great friend
I believe there's a nice picture of Larry and his '75 on Randakk's site. Look at the 2008 Rally pictures.

Yes you are correct. He is in a red jacket standing behind his red 75.

Stumbled on pic I took of Larry during the 2012 run and wanted to post it
He will be missed this year.
