Larry was born in Boston on November 5, 1939 and is a graduate of The Newman Preparatory School. He began working for his Dad at the young age of 13 at Sylvester A.

Ray coached youth football from 1972-1984. He actively participated in the World of Concrete International and attended yearly Conexpos.

During his retirement in Florida he volunteered at Paquette's Historical Farmall Tractor Museum which gave him much joy and entertainment.
Larry wanted all his past employees to know how much he appreciated the respect and loyalty they showed him even after they left his employ. There are too many to list, but they know who they are.

Larry, Ray, or Lorenzo D, let his heart touch a lot of people and nothing will show that more than the outpouring of friends, employees and family that will grieve his loss and feel that loss in the years to come.
