I was so sad to hear about Larry's passing. He was my Dad's cousin. I was so happy to be able to dance with him at my wedding 2 years ago. He told me that he had danced with my mother at her wedding and all of my sisters at their weddings so he had to dance at mine to. He danced really well too, at a really fast beat! He was always so joyful every time I saw him. He will be greatly missed. I'm sorry I will not be able to make it to the funeral because I just found out today about his passing and we are leaving on vacation early tomorrow. Love and prayers go out to his whole family and friends. I will cherish his memory always. Kathy Long-Kozlowski
