  	Larry Foard Caison (1936 - 2009) After a long battle with Alzheimer's, Larry passed away peacefully on Sunday, Dec. 6, 2009, with his wife of over 50 years at his side. Larry was born in Atkinson, N.C., and was proud to serve his country for 20 years. He retired as an enlisted member of the U.S. Air Force. Afterwards, his passion was to serve the next generation with a second career as a 20-year teacher at Thomas Nelson Community College. Upon retirement, Larry blessed our local community and became a resident of Destin, Fla. He was the eldest of three children born to the late Eli "Sonny" and Myrtle Caison. Larry is survived by his beloved wife, Lorie; and two children, Eli and Lisa; his grandchildren; and countless other friends and family that were blessed to have known him. A delightful man who loved to fish, laugh, be with family, have fun with friends and teach, Larry's love of life was always demonstrated through his appreciation with music, dance and camaraderie. He truly was the life of the party, whether it was at the American Legion or just poker nights at the house with family and friends. Larry touched the lives of many people with his smile and generosity, and maintained his trademark sense of humor all the way to the end. Friends and family are invited for visitation on Thursday evening, Dec. 10, from 6 to 8 p.m., and a funeral service on Friday, Dec. 11, at 11 a.m. at McLaughlin Mortuary, 17 Chestnut Ave. S.E., Fort Walton Beach, Fla. Larry will join other heroes at his final resting place at Barrancas National Cemetery. Larry was a true patriot and in honor of his convictions the family requests, instead of flowers, donations be sent to the Wounded Warrior Project, 7020 AC Skinner Pkwy., Suite 100, Jacksonville, FL 32256; or the Special Operation Warrior Foundation, P.O. Box 13483, Tampa, FL 33681-3483, in his name. McLaughlin Mortuary, 17 Chestnut Ave. S.E., Fort Walton Beach, is in charge of the arrangements.
