“Some people are larger than life and Lanard was one of them. There is so much to say about our gold friend. We have wonderful memories of Lanard. Our visits to the Outer Banks were filled with fun and laughs. Memorie like these keep him alive. His humor will live in his daughter and granddaughter. Lanard aged in a way we wish for all of us, with dignity and enjoying life to the fullest. Your sorrow is our sorrow. Love, Raphael, Merle and Family”
