​TRIBUTE TO LARRY

You did not live long

But left us a song

You were a growing giant

With dreams, abundant

Too green to dry

Too early to die.


Lively, lovely and cheerful

Smart, clever and peaceful

We hoped on you greatly

We prayed for you dearly,

Too soon to be gone

Too early to be done.


Larry, you were a gift

But death did you shift,

You were a lift

Sent, to make us swift

So painful to mourn

So wishful to return.
