Born Thursday, August 28, 1941 in Lebanon, PA, he was the widower of Helen (Schaeffer) Garloff, whom he was married to just a few months shy of 60 years. Larry was the son of the late Elmer and Marguerite (Naftzinger) Garloff.
Larry, better known as “Bones,” which was a nickname that started in his childhood because he was and always has been tall and skinny. Larry worked for Quaker Alloy as a steel worker and then drove truck for McMinn Asphalt. In his spare time, Larry enjoyed line dancing with Helen, going to dirt track car races, riding his motorcycle, and working outside in the yard. Larry also had a love for classic cars and he and his brothers would frequently go to car shows.
Left to cherish his memory are his children, Larry Garloff, II (Kim) of Lebanon, PA, Bambi Beard (Bill) of Lebanon, PA, Robin Day (Alan) of Holly Ridge, and Kris Delgado (Talia Halberor) of Fort Lauderdale, FL; sister, Doris Clemens (Dave) of Lebanon, PA; brothers, John Garloff (Laverne) of Lebanon, PA and Merle Garloff of Lewis, DE. Larry had 3 nieces he was very close with, Lynda Wenger (Ronald) of Myerstown, PA, Deb Miller of Hummelstown, PA and Terri Good of Harrisburg, PA.
Larry very much loved his 11 grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren; and his 2 great-great-grandchildren.
In addition to his wife and parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Peg Garloff and brother, Dennis Garloff.
Graveside services will be held on Saturday, March 26, 2022 at 11:00 am at Cedar Hill Cemetery in PA where he will be re-joined with his wife. A small lucheon for immediate family will follow.
