COVID has impacted our society in many ways. Deborah and I have not been in church at Taylor’s First Baptist Church since March of this year because of the pandemic. We did not realize that Larry had passed away until today. Donna and Larry used to be in a Life Group class which I co-taught. Donna we are so sorry for your loss. Even though we know you miss Larry now, we are thankful that Larry knew the Lord and you will ultimately see him again in Heaven.

I am so sorry for your loss. My husband passed on December 31 so I know hurt and heartbreak. Larry was always so happy and picking on me when he could. He always put a smile on my face. He will be missed. Praying for all of you and here to help in anyway.

Dear family you are in our prayers, I met Larry 30 some years ago, I have worked close with him the past 19 year, we stayed at the same hotels and ate dinner together when out of town, he always had a smile and a good word to say, He was a very good friend, he will be missed.

Donna, I'm sorry to hear about Larry's passing. I have great memories of us all worshiping together at Buncombe Road Baptist. Praying for you and sending love.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

I was lucky to have met Larry while on the Ingles frozen set team. He accepted me, an outspoken Yankee woman, for who I was, thou he lowered and shook his head a whole bunch at me when I spoke my opinion. Larry was one of the few who knew of my last cancer bout- he knew I was struggling, and instead of making a bid deal outta helping me, he asked me to do HIM a favor by riding along with him for ice cream sets. I will always treasure the hours of conversations I had with him. And I can tell you how much he treasured his family above everything- well with the Gamecocks a close second!!! Donna- know he loved you and your daughter, your grands, over everything! I will miss him every day!

I did not know Larry but I do know how much he was loved by Donna! Praying for God’s comfort, peace and hope for you Donna as well as for your entire family!

Larry Brewer was a gentleman and a hard working dedicated man. He was a good person that will be missed.

Larry will be truley missed by many that knew him.Always a kind word and respect for all.worked with Larry many years learned a lot about the grocery business from him one thing I did learn was to drive my own car if you were working stores after a set cause with Larry you were gonna be a while.....RIP GODS SPEED

So sorry to hear of Larry’s passing. Such a kind, hard working man who always greeted me with a smile.
Working for the same company but on different teams it was always a pleasure to sometimes get to run into
Larry. Rest In Peace my friend, you will be missed.

So sorry to hear of Larry’s passing. Such wonderful memories of him and family. I know he’s in heaven rejoicing and my prayers is that God will give you peace and comfort

Donna, Rodney, and Lindsey I am sorry to hear of Larry's passing. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Ken and I were blessed to become friends with Larry and Donna. Our sons were in the same class at Riverside, and we all enjoyed sports. We were in the same Sunday School class at Taylors. We will miss him as he was always so kind and caring. Our prayers are with Donna, Lindsey, Rodney, and the grandchildren who always brought a smile to his face whenever he mentioned them.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
