To the Primus family;

I have very fond and multiple memories of Larry, as does my entire family.  He spent a lot of time on our porch, and whenever my family had any occasion for celebration, Larry was there (even when I was not able to be in CT, in more recent years).  Larry is always one of the favourite topics of conversation when my siblings and I get nostalgic, so it's difficult to think we won't see him again.  When I was a teen and even a pre-teen, larry taught me many different crafts and never treated me like just another pain-in-the-rear-end little sister of his actual friends;  my brothers, Tom, Johnny, and especially Billy, as well as my sister, Christine.  Larry would always suggest that I go along for the fun trips in Tommy Skein's car.  He always made sure, if I was around, to include me and ensured me there was always room for me (I was always pretty little, but when my own  siblings did not want me there, he did.    

Larry always had a good heart and did his best to make people feel joyous and peaceful.  He is and will always be missed, but also remembered.  You did a great job with Larry!
