Larry is lovingly remembered by his dear friends, Winston and Sherry Haggett, and Randy and Linda Simms; along with many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.
Larry was a man of deep faith who loved the Lord. He looked forward to entering Heaven with his beloved dog Jax being the first to greet him. He was a hardworking, honest man, who cherished his wife and children. He was incredibly proud of his family. Larry loved to put smiles on everyone’s face by telling a good Newfie joke. His hobbies included playing the guitar and cheering on his beloved Toronto Maple Leafs, Blue Jays and Raptors.

Condolences
So sorry Louise, Jennifer and Nathan for your loss. We have so many memories together, Larry will be thoroughly missed. We spent a lot of time together and always had a good laugh. When I lived close Larry was always willing to give a helping hand when I needed it. Mom was just reminiscing about the trip you all took here to Newfoundland in her small car. We will all cherish the memories and great friendships we all have. Wish I could be there with you, all my love to you all! Love always Mandy, Pat and Bill! ❤️❤️
