Larry joined the army and his generous nature led him to be a chaplain assistant while he served. He went on to earn a Master’s Degree in Business Development. He was a very intelligent man and he helped businesses all over the world grow and develop their personnel. He became a lecturer on international trade and even authored the book “Import for Profit.” His business knowledge helped him create three companies: Universal Trade Development, Universal Trade Consultants, and Universal Sport Recreation.
Larry was very kind and very giving, volunteering to help wherever he could. He was a member of Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Chilton and also the Knights of Columbus, and the American Legion of Chilton. He taught CCD for over 30 years and was a Boy Scout leader in Massachusetts for boys with special needs. While in Massachusetts he helped get legislation passed that mandated the state to provide education to people with special needs until the age of 22. He enjoyed delivering Meals-On-Wheels and did so religiously until he was no longer able.
