It's in it's nature that incedents like this are very, very saddening.
I'm thousands of miles away from where Larry and Anne used to live and
practically not more than just a pretty small customer.
But mostly due to Larry's generous spirit, his kindness and last but not
least his special sense of humour it was always inspiring and fun to
share some thoughts with him or just having funny small talks like
showing on aerial shots where each others place is etc.

I remember when I received my bunch of flat rails how speechless I was
when I reconized how carefully the parts where wrapped and packed and
when I saw the personal note Larry included.
Lots of efforts were put into this little heavy parcel.


I received Moe's sad message here on the list shortly before I left for
seeing some friends.
An hour later when they recognized my mood I just replied "a friend and
his wife got killed in an accident".

How come that I call someone that far away, a guy that I never met in
person, I never talked too on the phone, a friend?

That's what's so special about Larry. Trust, openess, straightness,
kindness, spirit, helpfullness ... you all already named it ... this is
what makes the quality of contact we had when we where in touch with
this great fellow.

And then ...

I just re-read Larry's last post to this list. That's tough - really.

...

I'm not sure if that makes sense what I'm saying at the moment and
sometimes I feel a lack of language.
I just needed to express that, couldn't keep it for myself.

However, if I were a sprayer I'd give it a big nice "Larry" on some wall
here in the city.

Best wishes, Michael.
