Larry Latiok, 55, of Kingston, Ontario, passed away on May 17th, 2015 after a spirited, lengthy but graceful dance with cancer. He was surrounded by loved ones and listening to his favourite music.
Larry was born in Pembroke, Ontario on December 31st, 1959. His gentle spirit and contageous laugh guaranteed that he made lifelong friends wherever he went, including Fellowes High School, the cottage on Allumette Island, the Alice & Fraser Slo-Pitch League and on the road with fellow Harley enthusiasts. His 38 years of dedication and service to the Toromont Caterpillar family in Ottawa, Pembroke and Kingston saw co-workers easily transform into lifelong friends.
Larry will be greatly missed by his mother, Inga Latiok, brother Jeffry, sisters Monika (Kevin) and Sylvia (Chris) who will cherish every moment spent with Larry. Chad (Andrea), Michael (Kaela) and Natalie (Ryan) celebrate the lessons that their Dad instilled in them. His loving squeezes, carefree singing and funny jokes will be missed by grandsons Quinn, Kingston, Oliver, Camden and Dechker. He was a cherished uncle and mentor to Courtney, Jenna, Devon, Tiffany, Jules, Ethan, Grant, Erin, Riley and Blake.
The family would like to thank the team of health care professionals who guided Larry during his energetic dance.
