I am so sorry for your loss. Good WILL come from this terrible event, somehow, someway, GOOD WILL PREVAIL and Larry's death will not be in vain. I pray that God brings peace and hope to your family. Love,

I was made aware of this tragic event through the Ellen show. Although I am not gay, I do believe that people have a right to be gay and live in peace. God bless Larry's family and friends.

Little friend, you are gone and the pain of your loss will resound through many for some time to come. This complex and sometimes difficult life obviously did not treat you well but somewhere on the other side you are living beyond any of our means. God Speed little one.

I am sorry for your loss. Larry was taken too soon from this world. If we start today to teach our children that we are all different, and still human beings, maybe something like this will not happen again.
The children are our future. What are we doing wrong today that our children have learned to HATE???

I am so sorry this happened. I am so sorry to know this is what the world is becoming, full of hate. A gay friend of mine sent me the video of the Ellen DeGeneres show where she talked about this horrific story. I have an aunt and a couple of friends who are openly gay..kudos to them. May good memories of Larry always stay in your hearts.
I am so sorry.

My little sister died in January from a long illness, but I cannot imagine her being murdered by some animal. I am gay and have served in the US Marines and Iraq and have been in that sort of environment and it is shameless what passes for a free and "Christian" nation when we still don't have laws to specifically protect gays, lesbians and transgender. I also am angry at the pitiful amount of air time that Larry's death got on our piss-poor news. Larry I am sorry that we, that I have failed you. I hope that your memory helps your family to endure the days ahead.

I am so sorry this happened to you. I cant imagine losing a child, let alone to something so hateful. The killer should be punished for what he did not made to look like a victim. Everyone is trying to give an excuse(the card) to justfy the hate in the killer's eyes and heart. My condolenses to larry's family.

I am so sorry that this horrible thing happened. Its such a tragedy that some homophobic idiot decided to end someones life. And this is made even sadder because Larry must have cared a lot about the kid that shot him. Thats just not right. My best friend is openly gay, and I couldn't imagine what I would do if this happened to him. So rest in peace Larry. Heaven is there for you.

i just heard about this story from a gay friend of mine and i couldnt believe someone would have the heart to do such a thing. i am very sorry for your loss.i know how much pain the family must be going through,i lost a brother a couple years a go and he was too young to die. but i wish nothing but peace and hapiness in these years to come. god bless.

I am so very sorry for this terrible tragedy. I now live in Las Vegas, but was raised in Oxnard. And I went to E. O. Green junior high in the early 80's. I hit close to home for me. I remember going to that school back then, I am very sad to see it hasn't gotten any better, its gotten worse. Why did the administration not do anything about this bullying?? How did a 14 year old child get a gun into the school??? What happened to metal detectors?? Where was Brandon's father when he was taking that gun from his obviously unlocked gun collection?? What did his parents teach him at home to make him such a cold blooded bigot?? There is more than one guilty party here.
