This past March he became Worthy Patron with Worthy Matron Greta Torrence. I know Larry is at rest and the hurting is no more. I know in my heart as Larry was going home to the bridge we all cross over, I call it the Rainbow Bridge, because that is the bridge he will cross because waiting there and wagging her tail is his beautiful Katelyn, she has gathered with her all her cats to greet their Daddy home.
I will miss you honey, I will carry on because I know you are with me always. Until we meet again I love you. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his four sisters, Marie, Delores, Lenora and Frances; and three brothers, William, Robert and Donald Atwell.
