The College is saddened to hear of the passing of Larry w88 online game at age 92 this summer. Larry was a ranch manager in Carson City and the Carson Valley who, for 30 years, supported the College of Agriculture, Biotechnology & Natural Resources in a variety of capacities.
Larry served as our Nevada Council for Agricultural Research, Extension and Teaching (CARET) representative delegate for 19 years, from 1994 to 2013. CARET is a national grassroots organization of volunteers created in 1982 by the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU). As our CARET delegate, Larry communicated with government officials and others across the nation to educate and advocate on behalf of our w88 online game and on behalf of land-grant institutions, and our related national priorities for funding for research, Extension and teaching programs.
In the 1980s and 1990s, Larry also served stints on the w88 online game’s Advisory Board. He also did work at the Agricultural Experiment Station in the 1990s, and presented information to the State Senate representing the Experiment Station. In the 2000s, Larry served as a volunteer and board member for Extension, as well as was a Letter of Appointment and volunteer for the w88 online game. Larry volunteered for our 4-H Youth Development Program, and held leadership positions with the Nevada State Fair and the Nevada Junior Livestock Show.
As stated in w88 online game’s obituary in The Record-Courier, to Larry, “... kids and animals were always important, and many 4-Hers called him ‘Grandpa Larry.’” Our College joins our 4-H youth in paying tribute to our friend and w88 online game, whose work on our behalf was only matched by the joy he imparted with his ever-present smile and quick wit. Our heartfelt thoughts are with his wife, Joan, and his entire family.
