To our dear Uncle, brother & Son Love:Theresa Angelita Adam Billy & Joesph Earnests
My sympathy to Larry's family. He was a coworker at knox county and made friends easily. After he left I always wondered what happened to him-and if he still wore colorful shirts! I enjoyed talking to him, he always had words of wisdom! Rest In Peace Larry.
Heartfelt condolences are respectfully rendered from Talib Masudi (aka Marshall McKinney) and family from Fayetteville, NC. I'm retired US Army and retired DOD Civil Service. I'm also the oldest son of Wilburn Garfield McKinney and nephew of Aunt Timmy McKinney. May God's peace and blessings be on all members of the family during this time of such a great loss. Sincerely, Talib Masudi 3649 Daughtridge Drive Fayetteville, NC 28311 910-273-9472
