George
Arthur Larson, Jr. was born June 16, 1961 in Kansas City, Missouri. Born to George and Patricia Larson. George was a happy little boy who loved to
play outside. Playing baseball, frisbee,
catch, and cowboys. He somehow kept
losing one of his shoes. Lates in life,
George learned to weld like his father and did many odd jobs, always willing to
lend a hand. He always had his projects to keep him busy, he was a true
handyman.
George’s
journey on this earth was not an easy one, but he never lost his gratitude and
appreciation for those in his life. Even
at the worst of times during his health struggles he was always saying “thank
you” for what was done for him.
George
found things that brought joy to his life, from his little dog Blackie, to
fishing on a hot summer day. He as proud
to fix up his place in Joplin. He spent
countless hours at the local Habitat for Humanity looking for deals and
building his stash of tools.
George is survived by his mother Patricia Larson, and five sisters, Christine, Bonnie, Jill, Stacy, and Carrie, along with seven nieces and nephews, and three great-nieces and nephews.
