LARRY AND I WERE NEIGHBORS, LIVED ON THE SAME STREET AND KNEW EACH OTHER ALL THE WAY UP THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL. WE HUNG OUT ALOT TOGETHER. LARRY CALLED ME SOMETIME AROUND 1999 WHEN I WAS LIVING IN AUSTIN, TX. HE WAS LIVING IN LAS VEGAS, NV AND HE WAS ONE OF THE "MARLBORO MAN" COWBOYS. ONE OF THE THINGS I REMEMBER MOST ABOUT HIM IS HIS MOTHER. SHE WAS A RELIGIOUS PENTECOSTAL AND SHE NEVER WANTED LARRY TO DO SOME OF THE THINGS MOST OF US DID, LIKE GOING SWIMMING IN PUBLIC PLACES, ATTENDING DANCES, GOING OUT WITH GIRLS, ETC. HE DID ALL THOSE THINGS ANYWAY, JUST LIKE THE REST OF US.
