Lala,
Will miss you greatly, especially the private jokes and the laughter. You will always live in my heart.

Miss the dinners that we had with you remembering how you had your meat cooked (raw) we all got a chuckle out of that. Have several of the wood workings that you made for us to remember you by. RIP cousin.

Enjoy that GREAT railroad in the sky! I hope you are the conductor and not “stok-en the fire”… We always liked your stories, jokes and hearing about the things you and Leann were doing with the trains and the other adventures with “Grass Hopper” around the ranch. Especially your on going battle in dealing with the prairie dogs! Ivy and I will miss hearing your voice and your unique way of answering the telephone…
You will be missed……. Bob and Ivy

I tried calling the only phone number I have on hand which is the one with the 562 area code. Of course that has been disconnected so I’m sending a notice the other quickest way. Lee Ann, I am thinking of you. I loved seeing you two giving each other a bad time, joking and poking fun at each other. I’m especially concerned for your lonliness and I want you to know that you can call me at any time! Day or night – I know you have my phone number. Again I don’t know the Forsyth number, so I do hope you get this. I still owe you lunch so please contact me. Thank you for leaving the information at my desk. I would never have known if you didn’t. I am so very sorry. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. He was a great man and the way he smiled will be engrained in my mind forever.

Larry and Lee Ann are our good friends and neighbors while they lived in Long Beach, CA.
Moving to Montana was Larry’s dream and he talked about it all the time. We missed them both after the move to Montana however kept in touch by phone.
Larry was a great guy who loved trains, working with wood and his tools. He was always willing to help out on any project we were doing around the house. He Always had stories to tell. We wish he could have moved many years ago and enjoyed his Montana life a lot longer then he did. We are sad at his passing.
We hope Lee Ann will go on and continue enjoying life with her many friends around to be with.
