My brother Ben Nagel talked about Larry and Lanny all of the time as the years have passed.
You were his best friends.
I am sorry for your loss.

Larry was quite the character and kept us laughing. Merv and I attended church at Midway church of Christ/Waterloo Rd. with Larry and Mary Lee. Always loved it when he and Lannie got together and really provided entertainment. Your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Mary Lee, We love you both and have missed you so much since you moved from E. Edmond. We know he has been very ill for a long time and are so glad you don’t have the large house and yard where you were before. We plan to see you at the cemetary Monday. Our love and prayers continue for you always. Fern & Marvin
My sympathies to the family. It was my privilege to know Larry and the other members of his family who worked at M-D. I am glad his medical problems are ended; I know he will be greatly missed. Lois Hornbrook (Retired, Health Service)
Mary Lee, Ididn’t know where you had moved to and did not know Larry had been sick. I am sorry I cannot attend the services because I am not doing very good with my back and this walker. I have really missed you guys and my prayers are with you and your family. In Christian love, Verdean.
Hello Mary
I’m so sorry to hear about Larry. I have moved back to Ok and would love to get in touch with you.
