'Sad news indeed. I had my first contact with Larry during the 2014 Keith Roget weekend, when he slipped across the border to activate Murray-Sunset NP, and is a part of the award I recently attained, thanks mate. RIP Larry.'..........Mick VK3PMG
'Larry features in my earlier logbooks quite a lot, and was always happy to have a chat.

My condolences to Di and his family.'..........Amanda VK3FQSO.
'I am sad to learn of Larry's death. Jenny and I have been to his home and met Di and I visited him in hospital...'..........John Dawes VK5BJE
'I enjoyed many colourful and vibrant QSO's with Larry VK5LY, since becoming involved in the Parks programs. Most of those contacts were from or too Parks of all types.
