Larry Horton- Larry Horton was my Dad. He recently passed on October 23rd. He was born on March 19, 1942. His dad was Charlie Horton and his mom was Mary Kate Hardy. He had 2 brothers, Sidney and Jimmy, and one sister, Judy. Judy is the only one of his family that remains alive. His family lived in Coosa County, Alabama when he was growing up. He mentioned swimming in Hatchet Creek there. They would later move to Sylacauga, Alabama. He attended Sylacauga High School, where he met Georgia Anne Johnson. They were later married and was married to for 58 years. They married on June 24th, 1962. This is quite an achievement during this time. They had 2 children Jeffery (later to change names to Jaclyn)-March 17, 1964 and Steven-March 23, 1966. I have many fond memories of us at the cabin on Lake Martin swimming, water skiing and fishing. While we definitely didn't agree on everything, I'm really going to miss him. I love him very much. May his spirit be guided and his future incarnations be blessed.
