Thinking of you today, as I do often. I just heard your name read at the service and thought just what Adam said. My heart is with you and your family today.
I miss you LP.
Larr- Thinking about you...
Two years and 363 days. The pain is no less. We, the living, still ache from your loss. The rain has done wonders to the flowers at your gravesite. On Saturday, 9/11, watch for the twin beams of light. They are bringing all our love to the heavens.

Miss you kid!!!
Not a day goes by that my thoughts, prays and well wishes are not with the thousands of people and warm hearts that cared so much for LP and his whole family.
Great outing today!
You would have loved it!
Hey Larry. I have not been here in awhile, but you often pop into my head. I pass Martells walking home every night and always recall seeing you and Adam there late that summer of 2001. I had not seen you in a long time, and we never spoke, yet we were both so happy to see each other. I never realized our birthdays were 20 days apart. We all miss you.
Hi Laurence. Missing you a whole lot. Driving your old Prelude in San Francisco knowing how much you would enjoy the ride.
Yesterday was Memorial Day. Those of us who love you have had 952 Memorial days since that awful day in September, 2001. The flowers are blooming on your grave and we think of you always. Your smile keeps many of us going. God bless you and may you rest in peace.

Hey Laurence, Keep a look out for my friend Jobie who made her way up there this week. She was a great girl, who shared your love of life! You two will get along great. Show her the ropes. We miss you so much and think about you always. Love you and miss you today and always! xoxoxoxoxo

LP,
Since this has all happened, I think about you all the time. Back to when Danny first introduced us in Florida and we both ended up in Mt. Snow two days later. I knew right away you were quite a character. Especially when you took one look at Karen and said 'Who's your friend? I love her and want to marry her. Will you help me?' How could I resist? You ended up sending her a fruit basket for her birthday, which needless to say, did not help the cause. But fortunately, we all became great friends from it.
We had many memories, from all those summers in the Hamptons to crashing Christmas parties. Whether is was leading the Conga line at SocGen to some random shindig at Lips, no party was too big or too small (as long as there was an open bar).
You always made people smile. Even if it was just by stretching a tootsie roll across your mounth and asking 'do I have anything in my teeth?'.
It has been a privilege and a pleasure to call you my friend. From you I learned to live life to the fullest and to make every day count. I hope you're still making everyone around you smile-tootsie roll or not.
Love, Jen
I can remember in 1995 for about six months to a year, Larry would come by and visit me on the set of a couple of different television shows. We would talk and he told me he wanted to get out of the law and into the entertainment industry. He didn't know in what capacity, he just wanted in. I remember, specifically, him coming by the set of 'Central Park West' and within the hour he was shmoozing with one of the producers and the Directors Guild of America representative. He was dressed in a suit, having come straight from work on one of his many looooong lunch breaks, and here he was talking to these people that I worked with and rarely had contact with. Laughing, joking, patting on the back... It was around this time that he had the Julia Roberts incident and I have no doubt, had he continued to pursue a career in entertainment, that I would probably be working for him now. Coincidentally, Danny and Larry both appeared as extras on that show playing rollerbladers in Central Park.
There are people who drift into our lives for just a brief moment, yet have a tremendous impact. Laurence was one of those people for me.
I had the privilege of sharing a number of family holidays with Laurence, Danny, and Bud as Iris became an integral part of their lives. I remember the pride with which Bud gazed upon his boys; and the reaction my much younger son had as he witnessed the camaraderie and deep friendship Laurence and Danny shared. I loved watching Laurence take Justine under his wing, and lavish her with such special attention.
Who would have ever guessed that the life of such a vibrant young man would end so abruptly, so senselessly?
As his family requested so elegantly at the services, let Laurence be remembered for his life, not his death - his unbelievable zest for life, his adoration for his parents and his brother, his enduring friendships. And all of those lucky to have known him at all will be that much more enriched for the experience.
LP-
I just wanted to let you know that this year, for the first time since 1987... my BUCKEYES defeated the blue team from michigan...AT MICHIGAN!!! I know youre all die hard UM fans, and it was hard to swallow!!! My big brother really misses you. I think a part of him died when you did. Saul is lacking the humor he once had. We miss you very much. Happy chanukkah!!!!

Whether hanging out in the Syosset High School parking lot or partying this past year in the Hamptons and The Back Page, it was always a privilege to be in your company. Your greatness will always be an inspiration. I think about you often and miss you.
Larry,
Well, I have been wanting to write something to you for a while but I have not been able to get the courage up to do it. Well, I woke up this morning and realized that the time is now and another minute should not go by without me writing to you. When I think back as to how long I have known you and your family it blows my mind. Almost 28 years. It seems that our paths always crossed, whether it be in elementary, junior high, high school and even Michigan. Then I wound up living in the city in the same building as you at 1160! I only have fond, funny and pleasant memories of you, whether it be as children swimming in my pool, working (or making people believe we were working) during the summer at Central General, or just seeing you in the elevator in the apartment building with that huge smile on your face. No matter what time of day it was, you were always 'on'. Nothing ever seemed to put you in a bad mood. But the most important thing I remember about you is that phone call I received from you after my mother passed away. You were one of the first people to call me and let me know you were thinking of me. You asked me if I needed anything and told me if I ever needed anything you would always be there - and I know you truly meant it. If you only knew how much that meant it me and still does. I will never forget that. Larry, I think of you often and when tears of sadness come to my eyes they quickly change to tears of joy when I think of what a wonderful, caring, funny and most importantly genuine person you were and still are to me. To this day I still think I am going to bump into you on the street. I feel honored to have known you and your family. You all are truly special people. Please know that I try and call your Mom and Dad often just to say hello. I know that you would have done the same for me. I do not think there is one person in this world that cannot say that their lives have not been touched in an unbelievable way by you. Larry, you were truly a one in a million guy and you are truly missed and will continue to be missed for years to come.
LP, you're the best. I came across an old superbowl ticket the other day-when we were in Los Angeles together. I thought of when you were hanging out with the Rev. Jesse Jackson. I had to laugh. What a great time we had.
Miss you.
