Larry attended St. Joseph Cold Spring as a child and graduated from Bishop Brossart High School in 1956. In 1959, he married the love of his life, Doris and lived a life full of devotion and adventure together. He enjoyed a long and successful career at Procter & Gamble, working as a computer programmer and in product development.
Together, Larry and Doris proudly raised three sons, creating countless cherished memories. He never missed a cross-country race, track meet, or basketball game. The family gathered often at Lake Cumberland, and every fall, the boys reunited for a pheasant hunting trip in Iowa. His devotion only deepened with the arrival of grandchildren.
Larry “loved deep” within his community, and Catholic education held a special place in his heart.

In recognition of his service, he was inducted into the Bishop Brossart High School Hall of Fame with the Thomas Seither Community Service Award in 2018.
