Larry August Kickbusch, 60

Larry August Kickbusch headed for the barn and greener pastures to be with our Lord and Savior on May 18, 2010 at LSU Medical Center in Shreveport, La. Larry was born Oct. 11, 1949, in Havre to Roy and Lucille Kickbusch. He spent his childhood years in Coram and completed schooling through his second year of college. He later married Jeanne Amos and they had a daughter, Augusta, in 1975. He was employed by Anaconda Aluminum Co., Burlington Northern and Plum Creek. Throughout his years, Larry loved his pack trips at Spotted Bear with Russ Baeth, logging, fishing, hunting, camping and stock car racing. He was a lot like his father, Roy, when it came to tinkering with fixable stuff. He was always in touch with family and friends. He is survived by Augusta of Coram, Jeanne of Coram; Judy and Jeff Halsey of Whitefish; Doug Kickbusch of Great Falls; Pauline Kickbusch and Leland of Columbia Falls; Phillip and Tammy Kickbusch and family of Coram; Nathan and Shaylyn Dorlarque of Salt Lake City; Sheila and Colby Miller and family of Columbia Falls; Shelley Wick and Brad Kuzmic of Coram; Brittney and Eric Holden of Kalispell; Irene and Steve Garvin and family of Bigfork; Kela Bergren, Willard Kickbusch and family, and Martin and Greg Kardell and family, all of Havre, Wilma Berg and Chuck Tadewalt, both from Great Falls, Jean Kato and family of California; his friends, Karen Tolar, Vernon Tolbert, Noah Peppers, Skip and Marie Hanson, Steve and Dee Brown, Russ Walters, Dave Nedved, Ed Mundell, and numerous others. He also leaves behind his special four-legged friend, Jake. He was preceded in death by his mother and father; sister, Jola; and numerous other relatives and furry friends. There will be a celebration of Larry s life and a potluck at Hungry Horse Reservoir at a future date. Larry will be remembered for being very generous and having never asked for anything in return. He had a silly sense of humor and a ruff and gruff look, but had a heart of gold. Happy Trails!
