My loving tribute to Larry,my friend and husband... He was a giving, loving, wonderful person, who we will all miss forever! We can all take a moment to remember each of our special moments that we have shared with him. He has touched all of us in a special way.

He gave to everyone he has ever met something to remember him by.

Larry was such a wonderful human being and in his life just gave to everyone that he came in contact with.

I feel blessed that he came into my life, and he will always be with me in spirit. He will never be forgotten, ever!

I truly loved him and always will!

I miss him.

Peggy Lynch-Foley

I was proud to have his name.

I was very sorry to hear of Larry's passing. Although we lost touch at around age 15, when I moved from Mozart Street, I have great memories of roaming the neighborhood, skitching in the winter, raiding vegetable gardens and climbing garage roofs. My sympathy to all of Larry's loved ones.

Sorry to laern of the passing of Larry. I haven't seen in since we were kids. We spend many fun filled days playing on Mozart. My condolences to his family.

I am so saddened to hear about Larry's passing. Larry was such a part of my life as a young girl. Living across the street, the endless hours the Glaszer's and Foley's spent together have given me many precious memories. My condolences to Michael, Lea, Craig & Patty.

I think of Larry when I see "MASH" on TV or watch the Bears on Sunday. I also think I have Larry to thank for my love of travel and the ability to pick-up and go without a thought - I remember too well going to O'Hare without a suitcase - hoping to find a plane to Las Vegas - or just about anywhere - just for the fun of it!

I'm very sorry to hear of Larry's passing. Although I haven't seen Larry for many years, I remember him & the Foley family well from the Mozart Street days when we all were kids. (I am Wilma Glaszer's nephew, John Glaszer's cousin.)



My condolences to the family. May Larry rest in peace.
