weirracing Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Mel and Levi We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Keep your chins up because he is home and now you have a personal angel watching over you. I pray the pain subsides soon so you can smile when you think about him again!

NeilTPS Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Mike Knotts was correct when he said "standing room only". I counted about a 300 seat capacity. There were another 50 or 60 standing in the rear of the chapel. In each program, there was a picture of Larry's #53 red VW Sedan which he ran in TPS or CCS races. I am sure the Krauss family thanks all. Neil Upchurch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Thanks to everyone for all the kind words. Dad was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2003 and we were lucky enough to have him another 4 or so years. We will be missing not only a fun-loving person, but a father & grandfather, racer, and the best PR guy I ever knew. We will endure as I'm sure a lot of our fellow racers have done in the past. Dad made racing our family passion and my brother and I will continue what he loved so much. Thank you to this whole racing community. Proves again we are all one big family. He always had a thumbs up for us when he went out on the track. This thumbs up is right back at ya, Love ya Pops! Melvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
