Update 7-19-09

Hand in hand, the Pieratt family walked Larry to the gates as he flew away to heaven to be in Jesus' arms at 9:00 p.m this evening. Larry was a firm believer and follower; and knew that it was God's will to be done. God has other plans for him, as his work with us was complete.

The family was present, and we are at peace. While the void he leaves will be a significant one, we know in our hearts he is with us and we will see him again.

It is our hope and prayer that each of you can find the same peace and joy in your hearts as together we can celebrate the lives he has touched.

We will be making arrangements for services to "celebrate his life" and will communicate them as soon as they are available.

Our peace and love goes out to each of you as you deal with this in your own ways.

In His loving faith and service
