KORTKO, LAWRENCE "LARRY" July 19, 1942 – December 16, 2022 It is with great sadness our family announces the passing of Larry on December 16, 2022, after a long struggle with Parkinson's. He is survived by his wife, Jane, of 52 years; son, Tom (Heather); and daughter, Julie (Hugh). Papa to Harrison and Hudson. Larry was a dedicated, caring, proud and selfless husband, father and friend. He inspired others and was widely-recognized for his hard work, diverse talents, sense of humour, strength and determination, no matter the challenge. He lived a life full of experiences and travels that took him across Canada and abroad. He was a calm and steady hand and always there to support others in good and difficult times without hesitation, often with wise words of caution from a lifetime of experiences, that were appreciated and will never be forgotten. Larry dedicated 50 years to HVAC ending with retirement from Nailor Industries in 2010. As per Larry's request, Cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will occur at a later date. Donations to Parkinson Canada, in memory of Larry, would be appreciated. www.mceachniefuneral.ca
