Larry Dean Huffman - Guestbook

Once in awhile, we meet certain people who are just good, decent people. Larry was one of those rare people who did not ask for much and gave alot. He was considerate of those around him and tolerated the ones who were not. I will greatly miss him as his character was as solid as a rock.
Rest In Peace, Friend-

Teresa and ones,
Our love and prayers go out to all of you in
the loss of Larry. He always did what was right
and enjoyed life. Thanks for sharing him with
all of us and may JESUS wrap all of you up in HIS
arms during your grieving process.

To the Huffman Family,
Over the years, my parents, Roy and Linda Boehenamnn, and myself have had the pleasure of working with Larry at Brenham State Supported Living Center. He is a great man and he will be missed. Our thoughs and prayers are with you.

Teresa and boys: We were so shocked to find that Larry had passed away. He was one of those people that you always remember no matter how many years have passed since you have seen them. We often talk about all the fishing expeditions - nearly every day after work - and the fine catches he made. The boys were always along and if they got tired of fishing, which happened very seldom, they would go for a quick swim and begin all over again. They had a great role model in their father and I know they made him proud. He was a true friend to both of us and he was also a joy to work along side of. I wish there was something we could do but in situations like this there is not much anyone can do but be there for you if you need us. Please try to keep in touch - we are out of state now but our e-mail address is available so please contact us when things settle down. You have our thoughts, prayers and love.

Joe and Carl,

face. He was always there if you needed help. Bobby worked with Larry in the maintenance department and said that he was a great guy.Larry
was a gentleman and a real sweetheart. I will miss him. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.May God Bless you in this time of sorrow.

Teresa and family,

Words cannot express the emptiness in your hearts and home with the passing of Larry. Just remember that he is out in the open spaces enjoying the peace and quiet as he often spoke of. Larry often spoke of his family, hunting, fishing and his travels, and the stories were very entertaining. I know he loved his family and friends dearly and would do anything for them, I don’t think he ever met a stranger. Although he is gone from this world he will forever be in your hearts!

Dear Huffman Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your tragedy. I have been thinking of you. I am praying for your sweet family. I miss you.

Love, Dorothy Poncik(FBCS)

We deeply regret to hear of the loss of your father. I know that this is a tough time for you and your family and words can not express the sympathy that we have for you. Even though your father lived a short time here on earth, remember that he is looking down upon you and will always be in your heart.

With deepest sympathy and love for you and your family, our thouhts and prayers go out to you.

Aunt Ella Fay and family, I was so sorry to hear of Larry's accident. I will be there for the service.

Larry and I began employment one month apart in 1984. I have known him for many years, and was deeply saddened by today’s terrible news about his passing. I do know he was doing exactly what he loved to do, work on automobiles. Larry was hired into BSSLC motor pool to work along side Ed Neuman at the time, and he certainly could always be seen back there taking care of the vehicle fleet.

I remember his love of hunting and fishing and he providing numerous amounts of fish for our shop fish fry’s. Larry didn’t eat them, just loved to catch em’. Boy, he did have the reputation for catching fish, often times when no one else could. He knew Lake Somerville like the back of his hand, and always, always reeled them in.

I remember his, (I believe) 1967 Mustang Fastback that once his Mother drove. Man, I wanted that car! Larry wouldn’t sell it, because he wanted to pass it on to his son, which he did. His son wrecked it soon after, but Larry took it all in stride. If I could say one phrase that described Larry best from my perspective, it is just that, “he took it all in stride”. He was easy going, didn’t get riled up over much of anything, a calming presence and quiet wit about him. He was an intelligent man who gave great advices about a lot of things, usually though, only when asked. He was a great father who taught his children well, one of his sons becoming a what? A fishing guide at the lake for awhile, doing what his father taught him to love as well.

I am so thankful I was simply able to shake his hand last year again, to have seen him and spoke to him just like we have always done. Larry looked just like he did 25 years ago and still the same old Larry, such a good man.



Always a friend,

Byron Swor

Carl and Teresa,

God Bless the Huffman family in this time of great sorrow. Larry was a great man who would give to others before giving to himself. I got to know Larry working at the school, he was always cheerful and just darn good guy to be around with.
God Bless You all!!

To the family of Larry Huffman:

You are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Larry always has a smile on his face and made us laugh when he would come into our offices. May God bless you.

As children up until we each started our own families Larry and I were very close more like brothers than cousons. He will be missed.

How do we say goodbye to a boy who was such an intragal part of our life. Larry was the one person who was sincerely loved bye his entire family. There will be those that would say he wasn't a christian! I am his mother's twin sister so have allways been as close as any one could be to Larry and his family.Let me be here to tell you this man was the very enbodyment of christianity. His church was the wide open spaces. Did someone need help? Larry was willing and ready. He drove hours to help me. If I ever needed and LArry could get me help he would leave no stone unturned. He raised 2 men of the same caliber as he.Of course Teresa was there ,too. Together they were quite a force for triumph over the bad things life can throw. There is no words to tell what he has meant to us. Larry our darling, Rest in peace!!!

ONE WEEKEND A LONG TIME AGO MY BROTHER PAT, LARRY AND I WALKED THE RIVERS OF BOSQUE COUNTY AND VISITED LAKE MERIDIAN. FOR SOME REASON THE GIRLS WEREN'T WITH US. BUT LARRY DID NOT LEAVE ME OUT AS WE SEARCHED FOR DINOSAUR PRINTS. IT WAS A TIME THAT I REALIZED THAT I WAS SPECIAL TO LARRY AND HE WAS VERY SPECIAL TO ME. HE WAS MY COUSIN BUT HE WAS MOSTLY MY FREIND. HE GAVE MUCH MORE THAN HE RECIEVED AND WE WERE ALL BLESSED TO HAVE HIM IN OUR LIVES AND I BELEIVE THAT HE ALWAYS WILL BE, BECAUSE HE IS SO MUCH A PART OF ALL OF US. WE LOVED HIM AND WILL MISS HIM SO MUCH...

There is seldom a way to explain this type of tragedy, but please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Carl," our extra son", you know that you can always depend us. We love you and are praying for you.
Larry and Rebecca Schroeder
