[Oe List ...] Final report on Larry Henschen

[Jfknutson at aol.com]

Shirley asked me to send out this final report for her.  Larry died  
peacefully on April 14 with his family gathered around him as he was taken off  life 
support.  The following Monday evening family, friends and neighbors  gathered 
at the Henschen home to tell stories about Larry's life.  Shirley  is now in 
Texas with her daughters, Carla and Patricia.  There will be a  memorial 
service for Larry in the Phoenix area on June 16, details to be  announced.  
 
She wanted to thank all of you who have contacted the family who sends  their 
deepest appreciation.
