      My husband Jim and I became friends of Larry’s through Nylene, who taught with my late husband Jim In the Jefferson County (Louisville) school system. Larry was always smiling and happy in spite of his serious health issues. He was a big Louisville Cardinal basketball and football fan and was especially crazy about cheering for Lamar Jackson and following him in his pro career. He was always so pleasant to be around. He will surely be missed.
