Larry,
You were taken from us senselessly and violently, but I know you are not gone, Larry.
You are in the hands of the angels, in the arms of God who loves all of His children unconditionally.
Thank you for all that you brought to this world. For having the courage to stand in your truth, to shine your likeness to your Creator. Many people live much longer and NEVER have the courage to BE the truth they were born to be. I'll remember you every Valentine's Day, Larry!

I admire Larry for being so brave at such a young age. I know this story, though very tragic, is touching people and bringing awareness to an issue that is clearly in need of addressing. My heart goes out to you and your family.

I seem to be jaded by so much of what I hear on TV and the news, but when I heard about what happened to this innocent young boy while watching Ellen, my heart sank into very deep, sad place. I also have a son in Junior High and it makes me sad to know that children (yes children) this age are capable of such fear, hatred and will to murder, and actually carry it out. Larry will be in my prayers.

My heart goes out to Larry's friends and family. I'm just so sorry that this has happened. Larry was very curagious to be himself in spite of some of his classmates' intolerance. I would have been proud to call him a friend if I knew him.

I live on the other side of the world from Larry's family, but I cannot express adequately enough how much I feel for your loss.
Here in India, sexual orientation is definitely a touchy issue - and I was more convinced of this after participating in the only campus production of the Vagina Monologues in all of South Asia in six years. While many supported the message behind the Monologues, there were a number of people who used it to attack the actresses' performances.
To be so brave and be so open, and then to be hurt so violently for it... My deepest, deepest condolences to the family.

We shall never really understand how such unkind actions like this can happen. Condolences to the family,friends,and to those who were traumatized by the actual shooting at school, which will never be the same. Peace.

Thank you Honey, for being WHO you are - For standing up for WHAT you believe - for KNOWING that your LIGHT will NEVER go out.
Bless you on your new journey

What a sweet-looking young man. Kudos to him for knowing who he was and being brave enough to live life on his own terms. He will be missed, even by those of us who'd never had the honor of meeting him. Blessed Be.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I teach a class on race, gender, and sexuality and my students are always shocked to find out that people are still killed because of blurring gender lines or for being gay and not afraid to live it! This should get more media coverage and attention NOW! My thoughts are with you.

What a sad sad day, my thoughts and prayers go to you.
