I humbly offer my sincere Condolences to his Family. I had just tonight learned that my Friend of 12 Years has Transitioned. Larry was a real true Friend to me. He was very kind and generous towards me. I am so grateful that I was able to see him a few Years ago. He was as always in such great Spirits. Larry Barnes Jr and I knew many of the same individuals who lived in Highland Park, as well as many other areas in the City of Richmond Virginia. The last time I saw and spoke with Larry, he told me that he loved me. Larry was always excited when we had the opportunity to run into one another. Larry called me by my first name (Anthony) in his affectionately voice. Larry had come a long long way from the many unfortunately challenges he had experienced. As well as I. I am ever so grateful to my Creator for allowing me the privilege and the opportunity to have met Larry Barnes Jt in 2008. He will truly truly be missed.
