He was an employee of Crowley Foods, Sheltered Workshop for the Disabled, and Felchar Manufacturing Co. Larry was also a member of The Elk's Club in Kirkwood, NY, where he delighted in the sense of camaraderie and in sharing his culinary expertise. Larry's interests included cooking, baking, fishing, gathering around the bon-fire in the best of company on a warm, summer night, and listening to music. Fleetwood Mac was a standing favorite, along with the movie "A Christmas Story". Larry was the pulse of family get-togethers and was largely responsible for their organization. He will be missed by us all. His neighbor stated it best when he said, "Uncle Larry- There isn't anybody in the world like him." Thank you to George, for being there and for being so good to him through the years. The Dundon family would like to express our warm, heart-filled gratitude to the supporters, as well as the volunteers and staff of Mercy House, who provided exemplary care & compassion in Larry's time of need. Thank you. Graveside services will be held at Calvary Cemetery, 501 Fairview St. Johnson City, NY 13790 on Thursday January 11, 2024 at 12:30 p.m. Rev. Clarence F. Rumble will officiate. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that a donation be made in Larry's honor to the Mercy House of the Southern Tier 212 N McKinley Ave. Endicott, NY 13760.
