Larry L. Green, 62

Larry L. Green "entered into Heaven" on April 14, 2005 at his home at the age of 62.

He was born May 20, 1942, to Gordon and Thelma (Lenon) Green in Kalispell.

After attending schools in Columbia Falls, he joined the Army and served in Vietnam. Upon returning, he worked for the railroad until 1971 when he purchased the Dam Town Tavern in Hungry Horse. Larry also had several used car lots in the area over the years, retiring from that business due to ill health.

"May he rest safely in Heaven with Jesus, as well as with his family and friends. We will always be thankful for the influence he had on so many of us. Enjoy your reward for all the good things you did while you were with us. We love you and miss you, but you will never be forgotten."
