I know Tony. He's been missing on the forum since Thursday night but I still can't believe he's gone. I've been trying to run the forum alone and everything I do I keep thinking Larry is going to pop in and PM me or show up and help. It just still does not seem real to me that he'll never be back...

I'm really sorry for your loss, Linda.

Time heals all wounds, so hang in there.

Unbelievable Linda, i was reading the 5 star blog just now and noticed your blog entry about Larry passing away, at first i thought it was going to be a post about stressing the importance of good organization...then reading further i got a bad feeling this is the real deal.

Truly unbelievable, he'll sure be missed since he was a pillar for the forum and a cool guy from my experiences dealing with Larry.

Oh my goodness I'm so shocked - and so incredibly sorry, Linda! My sincerest condolences...Larwee was wonderful. I have several occasions where we shared a few IM's and his passion was laudable, to say the least...

Stunned and very sad with this news.

Thanks guys, I'm glad the 3 of you saw this as I know that you were in communication with him and would want to know. I just have not had time to reach out to anyone on a one on one basis and am hoping all the people that need to know eventually see this post.

Thanks again I'm sure if he is reading this it means a lot that so many have come forward with kind words about him.

Am not a real religious person so I can't say with certainty where Larwee would be now but I definitely want to believe that he's in heaven, eating his fried bologna sand., listening to the band music he liked, looking down at this thread and thinking to himself.....ooooh they shouldn't be makin such a big fuss over me. I was only doin my job...no big deal.

I said it at your blog Linda and still am at a loss for words to try to make you feel better. Came here and still teared up cos it's very sad. There aren't always people that ya meet in your life that just strike ya when ya get to know them a bit as bein such a nice person who genuinely cares about people and likes bein able to help others. Larwee definitely was. Don't think he got up each day and thought to himself now hmmmm what good can I do today, it was just how he was that he automatically thought that way about I would guess to say everything he did in life.

So...silly as it sounds I'm just gonna go ahead and think that he's not really gone. He's just moved to a little bit of a different location and is watching down on your forum. Think he loved this place and probably may have been where he was the most happiest...so I definitely want him to be happy so I'm gonna think what I said. So....he may not be able to post here anymore or do his duties he had......but he's still watchin what goes on here and lovin every moment of it.

To you Linda....I know your heart's breaking and sadly I can't think of any words to change that. (your poor little heart has been takin quite a beating lately and definitely didn't need this to happen) But......do know one thing.....Larwee loved this place, loved you, worried about you and last thing he'd want is for you to be sad. So......please....stupid as it may sound, when my Mom passed away and I'd get teary eyed I'd tell myself this.

Stop all this feelin sad and bein teary eyed. When somebody loves ya, they don't want ya to be sad. That only breaks their heart and makes them feel bad.....so next time them tears try to sneak their way in.....remember that Think of Larwee and all the happy times and smile He's up there keepin an eye on things.

Hugs for you

Hugs back Kathy. You are just the sweetest person I know and your words warmed my heart and totally changed this way I was looking at this. No more tears for me. I do think he's up there still watching over this place!

Thanks for the inspiration, Kathy!
