Honoring the Life of Larry Cunningham – Funeral & Memorial

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of my beloved father, Larry M. Cunningham, who left us far too soon after a sudden and devastating battle with brain cancer. In mid-December 2024, he experienced a sharp decline in health, and within just a month, the illness took him from us. His loss has left an immense void in our lives.

Larry proudly served in the U.S. Navy for over 20 years, dedicating his life to service and duty before being honorably discharged. After his time in the Navy, he worked various jobs, made countless friends, and became a man known for his warmth, humor, and love for conversation. He could talk to anyone and always made people feel welcome with his stories and laughter.

Now, as his daughter, I am faced with the heartbreaking reality of finalizing his funeral arrangements. The costs have become overwhelming, and I am struggling to cover the remaining expenses for his service, burial, and other obligations that have arisen since his passing. I never imagined I would have to ask for help in this way, but during this difficult time, any contribution—big or small—would mean the world to me.

If you are able, please consider donating to help honor Larry’s life and give him the dignified farewell he deserves. If you’re unable to give, sharing this post and keeping us in your thoughts and prayers would be just as appreciated.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support, kindness, and love during this incredibly difficult time.

With gratitude,

Christine
