My beloved brother, Larry Elrod, was born on April 23, 1952, and passed from this life on January 15, 2023. There are many wonderful memories of Larry I will always cherish. He loved dogs, and he was a very skilled photographer. I am so grateful I still have his beautiful photographs. He was an artist as well as a musician. He loved playing the guitar, being in nature, his family, playing pool, Mustang cars, and music-especially his favorite band, The Beatles. Every time I hear a Beatles song, I immediately think of Larry. I remember the day John Lennon died was the first time I ever saw him cry. When I was a little girl he would play the guitar, and I would sing mostly Beatles songs. Those times are some of the fondest memories I have of him. Larry could be funny, sometimes quirky, and sometimes misunderstood, but I can tell you he was a great person. He was my big brother who I would wait up for every night when I was growing up. We would play games, listen to music, and just talk about a wide range of things. Larry was a very caring person so much so when he heard a song or talked about a memory, he would have a crackle in his voice. He was very emotional about certain things that were close to his heart. Larry was generous and would give the shirt off his back to anyone who needed it. He was a loner except to the people he felt deserved his friendship and to them he was forever loyal. He treated people with respect and dignity, remembering how he had also been treated. Now Larry is with our mom and dad, his best friend, and all the loves of his life including his beloved dogs who have passed: Candy, Jazzy, Buddie, and Sabbie. I feel Larry with me everyday, as he gives me strength to move forward. I love you my brother and miss hearing your voice. I know you will now be there to welcome me when it is my turn. Until we meet again, your sister. Moffitt Family Funeral Care is honored to serve Mr. Elrod's family.
