He has affected my life for the better. His Getting rich book has had aprofound impact on my life and that of my wife and children. His simple teachings and enthusiastic writing style have kept me focused and determined over the last few years. I was reviewing my getting rich book and am on the cusp of achieving wealth level 2 and was curious to see if Mr. Waschka had any new material out there. I was surfing the net and sadly found out about his death. Just a note to his family from a very grateful reader and fan.
Dear Sweet Beverly, My heart goes out to you , Paul and Tom. I have been reliving the past and thinking of you every day since I was told about Larry. I am truly in shock. You are in my prayers. My love you always. Deean
We are very saddened to hear of your loss. Larry, Paul and Beverly (PQ) were a part of my life when I was very young. I will always remember those times with ya'll, Roger, Julie, Chris and Camille. Lawrence and Beverly, you must be very proud of the man Larry became. As a mother I grieve for you as much as I do for Larry. Our thoughts and prayers are and have been with you all.
Thanks Larry for your spirit and always making me smile. My prayers go out to the Waschka and Dolan families. I will miss Larry terribly, but I will never forget him. To know him was to love him. Thanks Larry for the memories!
To Larry's family, friends and wife Jessica: I am so saddened by Larry's departure from this life. I met Larry a number of years ago and was fortunate to have been able to have spent a number of weekends on Greers Ferry Lake with Larry and friends skiing and having a great time. Larry was a very generous, funny and bright man. After reading all of the loving tributes submitted it is apparent that he left an indelible mark on everyone with whom he came in contact. I, like many, wish I had stayed in touch over the years as I know my life would have been greatly enriched by having done so. Larry's departure has given me the opportunity to reflect upon how precious life is and how important it is to make the most of the short time we have with the people we love. For that Blessing-I thank you Larry.
My best college memories involved Larry and our mutual friends - we had great times together! Larry was a great guy and I knew in college he would be successful because of his passion and hard work. Larry was charming, fun, caring and had such a great sense of humor. My heart goes out to Jessica, Larry's parents, and Paul. I thank God for memories because that is how we keep those we lose with us forever. My prayers are with you all. We will miss you, Larry. Love, Susan Whiteside Roberts
Please know that I send my thoughts and prayers to you all during this tough time. Larry was such a special guy and leaves such a legacy of friends, and family behind. I knew him in college. We had classes together, and shared friends at church. He was always a great inspiration to me and a bright spot in the "duldrums" of our finance classes. I am so proud of what he has done and and the lives he has touched, and I know you all are going to miss him greatly. Again, please know that you are all in my prayers in this tough time. Robin Hall
Our thoughts and prayers for Larry's wife, family and friends. We are so sorry for your loss.
Larry was a kind, genuine person. I wish I'd got to know him better. My deepest sympathies.
With deepest sympathy to Larry's family.
To The Waschka Family: Larry and I went to Parkview and graduated in 1980. At the last class reunion, it was really nice to have seen him after 20 years. We all talked about how much we have changed. My heart was sadden by the lost of another classmate. My prayers are with all of you. Larry was a very nice and sweet person. He will truly be missed by the Class of 1980 from Parkview . Psalms 121 says" Look to the hills from whence cometh your help, ALL of your help, cometh from the LORD". Please look to the Lord for strength. Ask of him anything that you will and I know HE will answer all your prayer. May God bless and keep you is my prayer. Teresa Seals Sims
OUR DEEPEST SYMPHATY GOES OUT TO THE WASCHKA FAMILY.
I'm sorry we couldn't attend Larry's funeral. I felt like we would be over our bronchitis by this time, but I was wrong. I missed being a pallbearer at a friend's funeral last week and now i have missed attending this good friend's funeral. Please accept this as our statement of the respect and admiration we had for Larry, his sense of humor,his personality, his intelligence, his spirit and his unending optimism. We will miss him very much. Harland and Marlene Goodner
Lawrence, We are thinking of you and your family..
Everyone who had the privilege and honor of knowing Larry had their lives enriched because of it. We are humbly honored to have had our lives touched by his friendship.
Even at a young age of 9 , I knew Larry was a great guy to be around and love to have fun. We shared the SAAC stage as child stars... and more memories as we became adults. My thoughts and prayers are with the Waschkas...
Our thoughts and prayers are with Jessica, Larry's family and team Waschka during this time of loss. Keith and Bobbie
From an El Dorado Kindergarten pal...So sorry for your loss. Larry made such a difference in many people's lives and he will be greatly missed.
What a reunion it must have been last Friday with Harvey, Bonita, Patricia and Larry. This earth is missing a little light, but how much brighter Heaven must be! God bless you, Larry's family. You are in our prayers.
I always looked forward to talking to Larry. He had a great disposition. I pray for his family who has lost so much.
Dearest Jessica, I am sure your Mother is showing Larry around heaven. It has been a great honor to have had such an incredible person as a son-in-law. Be strong in your faith and know that we will all meet again in a much better world. Your loving Father
You are in our prayers. Love to all of you. Peggy and Family

Dear Family, I am a wife of a Corona distributor from New Jersey and was at the LasBrisas Resort last week during the accident. My husband and I were walking on the beach and were standing on the shore with others trying to do anything we could to help any of you during that difficult time. We prayed as you did and kept hoping there was something we could do. You probably do not remember us but we both tried to embrace and support all of you at your time of need and now feel somewhat connected in sharing the great memories we see of Larry's life. We are sure you are proud of Larry's acomplishments in business and his obvious deication to his family. Larry and all of you will constantly be in our thoughts and prayers. Please find strength in prayer and knowing that others share your sorrow. God Bless Politano Family

Larry, I met you at a business conference titled "Swinging for the Fences" less than four months ago and after getting to know you better during our weekly phone calls since then I can see that "Swinging for the Fences" has been your lifes theme. You became a positve influence in my life and I will deeply miss you. Your dreams and ideas and zest for life were magnetic and contagious. My thoughts and prayers are with Jessica and everyone else who loved you. Thank you for letting me be a part of your life even though it was for just a short time.

Beverly and Lawrence, I was so sad to read about Larry's death in the paper - what a wonderful young man he turned out to be. I don't know if you remember me but Clyde and I lived in a duplex with you when Larry was born. Our son Kemp was born the same year in November. I know it's been a long time ago but sometimes I think about those years and all the good times we had even after we both bought a house and moved to Southern Hills. Please know that you'll be in my thoughts and prayers. Rebecca (McArty) Williamson
