Larry was a graduate of Wm. Horlick High School, “Class of 1958”. He proudly served his country in the US Marine Corp. He was employed by J I Case Company until retirement in 2000, but afterward, also enjoyed working at Twin Disc and mowing the greens at Johnson Park golf course. Larry was an avid golfer and bowler who enjoyed reading, watching the sunrise, television, and a good cold beer. He was also a sports enthusiast, watching golf, football, basketball, and baseball, and always rooting for the Cincinnati Reds and the Duke Blue Devils. Larry was extremely passionate about his pets and welcomed many cats and dogs in his home, who he loved and adored, in addition to his many ‘grand’ pets.

Larry was loved dearly and will be sadly missed by his wife, Cynthia L (Nee: Lowden); daughter, Gina Lynn (Lee) Wiebenga; stepsons: Edwin M. (Nicci) Sandle, Robert T. (Dora) Sandle, niece, Shawn (Bob) Kwas-Nordland, his fantastic granddaughter, Milou Helene Sandle; other relatives and many dear friends.
