Good afternoon, I am sending you condolences from Ohio. I so enjoyed meeting Larry and family when I travelled to Connecticut and we celebrated his birthday and made the family tree on the wall of the library. His vitality filled his life and spilled over into the lives of others. Michelle Bozeman ( Kucia)
Diane and John - sorry to read about the loss of your father. I remember our first interaction very fondly. A seasoned auditor and accountant, I went to the business and was in awe by all the large construction equipment and crushers. After settling in to start accounting work, in walks Diane with an arm full of miniature construction trucks, something I had not expected when performing financial procedures. Diane explained to us that she would use the various vehicles to illustrate how buys, sells, and exchanges worked, so that we could understand their business. Although a unique approach I had yet experienced, I thought I had sufficient experience understanding accounting and finance to not have Diane move one and replace it with another. Later that day I met Larry for the first time, and I fondly remember talking about aviation with him, an interest I am very passionate. I remained on the account for a few years and then was replaced with new team members. It's been many years, but there are some client interactions I fondly remember in my now 35 years of public accounting. When I see the light blue mixers or a rock crusher, it brings me back.
I hope this message puts a smile on your face, and helps in some small way, as you work through this difficult time with Larry's passing. Be well.
Mr. Becker was a hard working man with a generous nature and great sense of humor. He will be remembered.
