Larry married the love of his life, Maria, on July 27, 1948. They met at the officers club that Larry was managing during the Nuremberg Trials in Germany. Maria was a singer at the club. They were married 66 years when Maria passed away in 2014. After WWII, Larry and Maria moved to Torrington, WY where they owned a Pepsi Cola/Seven Up distributorship.
