I want to offer my condolences and celebrate the life of Larry Sr. He was a mentor to me and never failed to reach out to help a then young lawyer trying to figure out the Chicago legal system. He sponsored my admission to the Federal Trial Bar and gave priceless advice as I carved out my career. More than all of this however, Larry was a gentleman and role model at a time when black lawyers had few to look to. He left a large and benevolent footprint. May you now rest in peace in the arms of our Lord.
Vincent R. Jones, Sr.
