Larry Dean Norton, age 60 years young, of Marshall, Virginia passed away Friday, September 28, 2018 at Fair Oaks Hospital in Fairfax, Virginia from a terminal illness that took him far too soon. He was born on September 23, 1958 in Covington, Kentucky to Francis C. and Irma A. (Lanter) Norton. He attended school in Dry Ridge, Kentucky and graduated from Grant County High School in 1976.

He is survived by his current wife, Sherry C. Norton, of Marshall, Virginia, his adult daughter, Rebecca Norton, of Phoenix, Arizona, and his sister Betty Waters, of Taylor Mill, Kentucky. He was preceded in death by both parents, Francis & Irma Norton, his older brother Gerald Norton, and his older sister Sandra (Cookie) Lovelace. His first marriage to Rebecca’s mother, Elizabeth Cross also of Phoenix, ended in divorce.

However, the two remained close friends. Larry had an incredible sense of humor and fortunately this was inherited by his daughter, Rebecca. Having grown up in the Cincinnati area he was a big fan of good Cincinnati style chili and coneys.

He lived on a dairy/tobacco farm for a bit with his Uncle Elmo and Aunt Juanita Hedges and acquired a strong work ethic at a young age. He learned to drive tractor on the farm and was a life long fan of a good tractor pull contest. (John Deere) He loved automobiles.

. Chevrolet – and had a 1968 Chevy Impala and 1968 Chevy Caprice that he spent a good amount of time gathering parts and tinkering with when he was able. He always loved to go to a car show and respected any muscle car from the 70’s or earlier.

An avid gardener, he would make his own compost and fine tune it and share the garden bounty with his co-workers and neighbors. Although he could be a sharp dressed man when an occasion called for it, he was always most comfortable wearing a pair of sweats and a hoody to putter around performing his many garden tasks. He also loved the deep cuts of classic rock, guns, and burgers with tomato, lettuce, and mayo.

He absolutely despised warm beer, and a former neighbor who egged his car. After moving to the northern Virginia area in the late 1980’s, he spent most of his life working with electronics in quality-control positions where he could use his highly perfectionistic tendencies for good. He found his niche in the mechanical field and enjoyed that aspect the most.

He was employed at Northrup Grumman as a Principle Quality Assurance Inspector for the Mechanical Machine Shop Work Center prior to his death and enjoyed the challenge of the job, however the commute to get to the area was a slight hindrance to his overall satisfaction as it is with many in this area. Good ole’ 66 … A casual gathering of friends will be at Moser Funeral Home, 233 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton, Virginia on Wednesday, October 3, 2018, between 5-7 pm.
