Sorry to hear about Larry's passing. I also have some fond memories of Larry. I appreciated very much the personal tour I received of the backyard rail system. The work done was excellent.
As an IES/Alliant engineer, I often visited Prairie Creek Station for work. One day as I drove in, there was an ultralight buzzing around the top of the building. I went in directly to the plant manager's office and expressed my concern for the pilot's safety and the plant operation. Former air force fighter pilot Bill Douglas reported that it was Larry and there was no reason to be concerned. Bill was very right.

Julie and Family, Sorry to hear of Larry's passing! We always enjoyed chatting with him and he was one of the best neighbors we could ask for. He was always smiling and always honked and waved when he drove by and saw us outside. He will be dearly missed!!!!😞❤️❤️❤️
