Obituary For Larry Kasiah

Larry Ray Kasiah, 58, passed away on August 20, 2025. He was born on May 27, 1967 in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, to Claud Kasiah and Nina Armstrong.

Larry worked as a cook and was known for his love of food and sharing meals with others. His hobbies reflected his adventurous and curious spirit—he enjoyed gold mining, football, playing the slots, bird watching, and of course, cooking. He was an incredible storyteller who could light up any room with his humor and warmth. Larry had the rare gift of turning strangers into friends, and he was always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need.

Above all, Larry deeply loved his family. He shared nearly 30 wonderful years of marriage with his beloved wife, Beverly, whom he married on March 23, 1996. He was a devoted father to his children, Jennysue and Paul, who were his greatest joy.

Larry is survived by his loving wife, Beverly Kasiah; his children, Jennysue Kasiah and Paul Kasiah; his parents, Paul and Jennie Bustamante; and his siblings, Martha Jane Kasiah, Carol (Jimmy) Halloway, Rod (Debbie) Kasiah, Joe (Ginney) Kasiah, Nina Fahl, Molly Doolittle, Eddie Joe (Diane) Gurule, and Ginger Gurule.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Claud and Nina Kasiah; his sister, Marilyn Kasiah; and his brothers, Richard Kasiah and Claud Kasiah Jr.

Larry will be remembered for his generosity, kindness, and adventurous spirit. His presence will be deeply missed but fondly remembered by all who knew and loved him.
