Born November 11, 1952, in Cullman, to Zula and Kenneth Hayes; Larry was a loving husband to Elizabeth Hayes, a supportive father to Bridget Kent, a faithful pop to Chloe Barbee and Callie Glasscock.

Larry, a devoted family man and skilled carpenter, passed away peacefully on February 20, 2025, surrounded by his loved ones.  He leaves behind a legacy of hard work, dedication, and generosity.  With a remarkable 40 year career as a carpenter, Larry instilled in his family the importance of hard work and saving.  He was a loving husband to his late wife Elizabeth, whom he affectionately called Baby Doll, and a devoted father and grandfather.  Larry's love for his family was evident in the way he cherished every moment with them, from cruises and vacations to everyday life.  He was also a passionate animal lover and devoted caretaker.  His generosity extended beyond his family, as he faithfully donated to St. Jude's and helped those in need.  Larry's memory will be cherished by all who knew him, and his legacy will continue to inspire his loved ones for generations to come.
