hey Everyone,

I will be posting funeral arangments tomorow, at the moment we know it will be in south central indiana in Larrys Home town.

Im sure Larry is heard and is still hearing all of your Prayers, I dint mean to have things confused on here as to Larrys condition so I didnt tell everyone that he had died instantly when I first called, I was told he did but wanted to verify that first, and also to make sure that all of his family members were notified first so that they didnt find out this way first.

as you can imagine Darcy is very shaken and Im sure it hasent sunk in yet Larry has a lot of imediate family as well

His Daughter Jesica is 16 & lives in the SC with Larrys privious wife

His step son Mace graduated from High school last week here in Valpo

His Step son Mark is in Qiwait (SP) and will be coming home tomorow we think on emergincy leave

another step son Michale is in the service as well and located in GA also coming home on EM leave tomorow

and a 3rd step son Matt just returned to denver yesterday after deing home for the graduation is also now on his way back home

The acctual Happenings were Larry was sitting at a red light waiting to turn Left accros trafic while heading North on HWY 421 when a suburban failed to see the red light and the bike did not slow or stop he hit Larry from behind, and pushed him for 163 feet ind into the other lane of on coming traffic before hitting another car as well the suburban was going about 55 mph when he hit larry who was compleatly stopped
needless to say Larry was killed instantly there were more details given to us at the coreners office that I will leave out, but he definantly did not see the truck comming or hear it since the truck didnt brake. and due to the injurys described to us the corner feels he dide instantly with no knowlage of what happened.

to make somthing a little positive out of nothing, I can tell you there was a major look of relief on Larrys wifes face while we sat there with the corner and he described this because she then new Larry didnt know or feel a thing. another slight positive is that the injurys were 99% internal so for the final memories (ViSUALLY) his family has at the funeral they wont be as bad as some motorcycle vs car tragidys. they said he only had a small scratch on his face but there was nothing left of his ribs or internal organs

its been a long night and Im not thinking to clearly so I hope I havent said anything I shouldnt have, if I did Ill edit it in the morning when I post the arrangment info

Please everone dont contact Larrys fammily for a few days or a week Ill post there addresses once they say its alright, but I can tell you the phones are non stop there and it is making it worse. Darcy had a lot of troble talking about it and telling everyone that called just added to it. your welcome to call me if you need to and if you need somthing taken over befoer I can post there address I can do that as well Im putting my info on here for now untill Larrys wife says its ok to post thiers

I didn't know Larry, but read many of his posts. Definitely a good man, and I will miss reading his posts.

May he rest in peace, and may God help his family cope with their loss.

[P@blo]

Larry had helped me an many posts and was a great guy. I can only imagine what the family must be going through right now and can only wish them the best in this time of need. It's unfortunate I never had the chance to personally meet him.


God bless
