    Larry and I were classmates all 13 years. I’ll never forget a poem he wrote in elementary.
    The snake bit the rake
    The rake hit the snake
    The snake died

    I hope this brings a smile during this sad time. Condolences to Larry and Janelle’s family.

    My last name was Ehlert, I was a classmate of Larry and Janelle. So sorry to hear this. He was a friend who helped me in chemistry with experiments ,it was a good time. My friend Connie and I had stopped to see Larry at his trailer awhile ago. We ended up staying about an hour had a nice visit. My sympathy to his family and friends. . I am sure he is happy to be with Janelle again.. prayers and hugs.
