I've lost my "echo" and fellow Scoutmaster but I've gained a friend on the other side of Jordan. Keep the coffee pot warm, I'll not be too long.
To Larry's family, I know it's hard, but your loved one is with his Lord and loved ones who preceeded him. My prayers are with you.
Larry, we have been good friends since 1976. Our friendship has meant so much to me. All these years we have never had a cross word. Our love for our families and the discussions we’ve had about the problems and the joy in raising our kids was such a pleasure. Larry you were always pleasant, never using a foul word, no gossip, never a lie. I will miss you Larry until the day that I too, pass away.
Mr. Romaine, you remain one of the most influential people in my life. Your gentle but firm guidance was second only to your sense of humor and fun. Thanks for being there for so many of us kids.
What a blessing this caring man was to many lives. As a parent of an Eagle Scout I'm grateful for his mentorship to our son, not just in outdoors preparedness but also in preparing him to be responsible in life & to others.
Larry Romaine, you made a huge impact on my life through Boy Scouts. I made Eagle Scout because of your influence. I carry life lessons to this day because of you. I believe with all my heart the Lord Jesus said to you, “Well done thou good and faithful servant, enter into the joy of the Lord.” I look forward to seeing you again in the presence of the Lord.
