Larry was one of the best friends I ever had and I have so many memories of the past. I was so sorry to hear of his passing and pray for the Lord's peace and comfort to be with the family during this time. Good bye my friend, I'll see you soon in Glory as we so many times discussed.

We were so sad to hear about Larry--as we had only gotten to know him very well over the past year!
Larry Roberts holds a dear place in my heart--him being the builder of my family's first home.
We sure will miss sitting out on the patio watching Larry drive by slowly, smiling, and waving...When he wasn't busy he would stop by just to check on us and would always end our visit with a big hug--sometimes a few!
I know Larry was loved by very many and he will be dearly missed, but I also know all the time's he talked about how much he missed his son and his brother... at which now he can look down at all of us missing him on Merritt Road and just smile.
It brings me peace to know he is no longer suffering and that he no longer has to worry about our needs or happiness...even on his roughest/toughest days he was always out there taking care of everyone else!
Mrs. Tina and Family we are so sorry for your loss and are right down the street if you need us for anything!

will meet again. Bless you and your family.
