This is sad and I'm really sorry to hear of this horrible news. He was always a cool person to me; to everyone, as far as I know. My heart goes out to your family and to all that knew him.

 
Obviously I got the date wrong it was the 16th. 
Larry collapsed walking into work on Tuesday morning. They figure a heart attack. He was 2 weeks shy of 65. 
A big guy but a real softie, he’d give you the shirt off his back or the guitar off the wall. I know of instances where a kid would show an interest in guitar and Larry would give him one. Last year when I was extremely ill and hospitalized for months I had told Larry I always loved his USA tele,  a week or so later it just arrived  I offered to send it back or at least pay for it but he wouldn’t hear of it.  
He had many talents, not only was he a great Bass player he had a degree in Engineering Physicsand was a pioneer in the field of Optical Fiber  

I’ve already had the “oh I’ll have to call Larry and tell him that moment”

And yes he had a twisted sense of humor and appreciated the female form  

I’ll miss you brother  

 
I'm really sorry to hear this; I enjoyed his posts. Our condolences and prayers to you and the rest of the family.

 
A slight, later, add....Maybe it is just my imagination, but it seemed like KTB stepped up the pace of his posting of jokes, memes, pictures, etc this past year. God only knows that it has been 12 months or so that we have had to deal with a lot of strange new and not so nice things. The daily reminders that it is good to see a bit of light and humor and uplifting material  in our lives was all the more appreciated.

While we never met, in person, I felt that we connected like old friends. Perhaps sharing a similar sense of off-beat humor. Comments here are a measure of how much he did for us all.

 
This just makes me sad.  There are so many good people here, and each loss is deeply felt.  RIP, and peace to the many whose lives are affected by this most recent disturbance in the HFC force.

 
Yikes!  This is kinda unbelievable.  My condolences to his family and loved ones.  Too young.

 
Stunned and saddened, 65 is waaay too young! Heartfelt condolences to @Rocktuna, did not know you were brothers. This makes the loss much more profound, knowing that 2 of our HFC family have suffered. RIP KTB

Terrible. I lost a close friend in the same way 3 years ago, 49 years old. My thoughts are with you.

 
This is such terrible news. I can truly empathize with @Rocktuna having lost a sister a short time ago. You and your extended family will need all the support and love that you can get. If you need anything please feel free to contact me, anytime.

 
Totally agree - it is really tough losing a sibling, especially when you’re close.  I lost my little sister last fall to Glioblastoma, and am still reeling in many ways and miss her terribly.  Thinking of you a lot these days, Rocktuna, and celebrating the fact that you shared your brother with the likes of us here on the HFC.
