I didn't get to make it to your funeral Larry, I didn't get to hug Wayne or Christine and offer them my comfort up close. I just want to take the time to say here on this special page how much you are loved, how much you are going to be missed. You brought something special to this family, a certain flavor, style, you Larry are one of a kind. You came into this family long ago by marrying my sweet sister Rosie, the Astarita clan embraced this funny man that wanted to take his teeth out all the time, this southern boy that humored us with Richard Nixon impersonations, This cowboy that loved to celebrate and dance, and like the Forth of July you set the world on fire. You lived with passion and compassion. We shared laughter and tears with you, chess games, baseball, pool games, and beer, lots of beer. I keep saying you were one of a kind, and I mean that there are not that many that step into such a big family and just become one of our own. I loved your folks too, Debbie and Jerry, Alice and Jack, Janet when she was here, your parents, you have great people and come from good stock too, just like all of us, I love the way families can twine together like that, the way we can all come from such different backgrounds but blend together to make one incredible happy family. I love Wayne and Christine Larry, and the way they are taking on this world, I knew they were incredible all along, heck there Rosie and Larry's kids, I knew fro hello they were destined to be great, from ellie and fitzgerald, and sleeping in the top bunk in Christines room. I love those kids, I don't see them daily, I don't get to hug them much, but there is a bond that is etched deeply in my soul of them forever. Well, brother you are now free, nothing binding you, nothing making your mind restless, you brother are free. May Christ's Peace Always be with You, Go on now, we will keep looking up!
