Larry was the Treasurer of the student government in our senior year. ...and quite handsome! When Collette Diaute was selected as Miss Teenage America they asked me to step aside as her escort - as S.C. Government prez...because the media demanded a more suitable escort...Larry stepped in and did us all proud.

He met his professional goal...he wanted to be a chiropractor when I didn't even know what that was....

He was a great guy to work with and seemed to take it all in stride.....he had it all going on...I'm sure he made his corner of Monmouth County a little brighter
