Larry Kearns of Winter Garden, FL received his angel wings on June 1, 2023 at his home after fighting a long illness. Larry was born July 13, 1949 in Monongahela, the son of the late Roy Calvin Kearns and Olive Walker Kearns.

After graduating from high school, Larry moved to Virginia to pursue a government career. He worked as an IT Specialist for the Department of the Army in Fort Belvoir, VA.
