I was a fellow electrician with Larry at Delphi. He was always a good natured person, always ready to help a fellow worker. I am deeply saddened by his passing and regret that he did not have longer to enjoy his well deserved retirement doing the things he enjoyed with his loved ones. I offer my condolences to all his family and friends.

I worked with Larry in several different departments over the years at Delphi. First as an operator in 181 and then as a CAC in 181 and 286 and ECS. Larry was such a fun person to work around. He was a hard working, knowledgeable electrician. He talked often of his daughters and how proud he was of them. He was such a sweet man. I hope all your memories give you comfort now. Your family will be in my prayers. I will always remember Larry with a ball cap, a smile, and a wave.
