Larry's Story
Backing up a bit, the Classmates site indicates I was in the 1969 or even 1967 graduating class of Norview HS. I was part of the big redistricting that took place when Lake Taylor opened in 1967. Attending Norview in 1966-67, I moved on to Lake Taylor in the Fall of 1967. After high school, I attended Chowan Junior College in Murfreesboro, NC before moving south to Methodist University in Fayetteville, NC graduating in 1973. Settling in Fayetteville after graduation, I spent my working career in parks and recreation.
Married Pam in 2002. We love the beach, especially Ocracoke Island on NC's Outer Banks. I enjoy golf, kayaking and surf fishing. We have four beautiful daughters, Rachel, Becky, Shannon and Brandy...and they have produced six grandsons: Isaiah, Connor, Cameron, Noah, Grayson and the latest addition, Sammie.
I officially retired on January 1st, 2008, after spending more than 29 years with Cumberland County ...Expand for more
(NC) Parks and Recreation and another 3 and half with the consolidated Fayetteville-Cumberland Parks and Recreation Department. In post-retirement, I accepted an interim position with Cumberland County as it's animal services director while it searched for a permanent director...to put it mildly, it was a challenge.
In late 2008, Pam and I moved to the small coastal town of Swansboro (NC). We couldn't have selected a better place for our retirement years. We love the area and especially the people. I may have retired in 2008 but haven't been idle. In the fall of 2009, I was elected to a 4-year term on the Swansboro Board of Commissioners and again in 2019. I have also been a member of the town's parks and recreation advisory board, planning and zoning board and a number of planning committees. In addition to serving on the town's governing board, I'm the treasurer for the Swansboro Historical Association.
