It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of my darling Larry, adored dad, cherished grandad and uncle, who sadly passed away on 4th June 2026

Larry will be so deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. He leaves behind a devoted wife, 4 children and 10 grandchildren who will forever be grateful to have had such a precious man in our lives and will forever cherish the memories that we shared together throughout his life.

His absence leaves a huge space that can never be filled, but his love, his values and the memories he gave us will remain in our hearts forever.

Our Hero, deeply loved, forever missed, always remembered xxx

You are warmly invited to join us at his funeral and afterwards for a drink at Edenwood Place, 15 Old Chatham Road, Aylesford, ME20 7EZ, as we celebrate his life and share memories of the wonderful man he was.

Please feel free to share your memories, messages and photos on this memory wall. xx

I had the privilege of working with Larry & the news came as such a shock, he was not only a key member of my team but such a kind, caring hard working man that never moaned & nothing was to much trouble. He had such fantastic stories to tell & if I ever knew I needed to speak to Larry over something I knew the conversation would take longer than with most people as we would digress in to so many interesting things he had to share with me.

Larry you were not just another employee you was a great guy, a pleasure to work with & great driver. My team & I will remember you.

Rest in peace Larry til we meet again

In loving memory of my beloved cousin Larry.

Larry was a kind, gentle, and caring man who touched the lives of everyone who knew him. I have many fond memories of the times we shared, and I will always cherish them. His warmth, kindness, and quiet strength will never be forgotten.

Though he is no longer with us, he will remain forever in my heart. I am grateful for having had him in my life and for the memories that stay with me always.

Rest well, Larry. You will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered.

It was a privilege to have known you, Larry, over the years. You were always so kind, warm, welcoming and gentle, and your kindness left such a lasting impression on me. The love you shared with Kim was truly inspiring, and seeing you together never failed to make me smile. I always loved listening to your stories of your travels together—they were memories you spoke of with so much love, and they were a joy to hear. I’ll always remember your warmth, your generosity, and the way you made everyone feel so welcome. I’ll never forget you or your kindness. You will be deeply missed♥️

You meet people in your life , then someone always sticks out in your mind and for me this is Larry
I often talk about him to people that don’t even know him
Such a cool dude, never heard him raise his voice but had an excellent way of explaining things. Be like Larry 🥰❤️

Larry was one of life's gentlest and kindest men. He has left Kim, his children, and his grandchildren with so many beautiful memories to treasure forever.

I always love hearing Kate talk about her dad—her absolute hero—and the wonderful, heartwarming stories she shares about him. It's clear how deeply loved and admired he is.

You have left such a huge void since you passed, Larry, and you'll never be forgotten.

Rest in peace, Larry. Sending so much love to all of your beloved family. ❤️

Viges and I only met Larry twice and he left a lasting impression on us both . It was an absolute privilege to know such a gentleman even for such a short time.
R.I.P. Larry with our love.
