He was born June 2, 1934 in Boone Iowa. The son of Theodore and Ethel Moore. He was the youngest of five children. As a young man he served his country well in the US Army and throughout his life was unfailingly patriotic.

He took pride in the landscaping of his yards and was recognized for its beauty by the city of La Mirada.

Larry was preceded in death by the recent loss of his loving wife of 51 years, Reva Moore. Also, by his brother Owen Moore, sister Dorothy Bickers, and sister Phyllis Benson.

He is survived by his brother Max Moore of Rancho Cucamonga, California, his stepson David Southard of Jackson, California, 10 beloved grandchildren, and six great grandchildren.

Larry was dearly loved by his family, now home resting in the arms of the Lord.
