To Christine and family. Wayne and I were shocked and stunned to hear of Larry's passing. We are sorry that we could not attend Larry's funeral today but he was in our thoughts as are you and the family. Larry was such a lovely gentleman and Wayne always enjoyed talking with him. He will live forever in your hearts. Best wishes Wayne and Diane Hurring

Chris, Scott, Gareth, Lauren and Micarla, I was shocked and saddened to hear of Larry's passing. I knew Larry as Scott's dad, Mr McKenna - a good, kind, friendly man with a great sense of humour who loved sports. Sorry I can't be with you to pay my respects in person today. Thinking of you and your family at this very difficult time.

Christine and family, a sad loss for you all. May much laughter ring out and many tears fall as you all share memories and remember the fun guy that Larry was.
Remembered especially for the fun times we enjoyed with Napier Round Table when we were members of The Bay Round Table the friendly competition between the two clubs, the shared meals, the Convention trips and the times we all spent with Jimmy n Gay and family
Thinking of you all and sending hugs
