They would have celebrated 21 years of happiness this year. They were still like 2 love birds. Larry worked many years as a truck driver. He also drove taxi for several years. He was a self-trained mechanic and could fix any vehicle, as well as any house hold appliance. Larry owned his own delivery service at the time of his passing. Larry loved to hunting and fishing. He especially loved spending time with his grandchildren, but especially had a soft spot for his first grandchild whom he called "Dolly". She could do no wrong in his eyes! Larry was a fantastic cook and did all the cooking for the last 21 years, according to Gail. He loved playing cards and a good win made him chuckle beyond. He often referred to the good times he enjoyed at the York and all the friends he had met and goofy things he did. He said he had no regrets that he had lived his life to the fullest and there is nothing I would change. He said people needed to be happy. Donations in Larry's memory may be made to Swift Current S. P. C. A. Warren's Funeral Home in care of arrangements.
