Larry Eugene Stevens

Larry Eugene Stevens, age 85, of Holland, Ohio, died Friday, October 18, 2019, peacefully in his home with his loving daughter and nurse by his side. Larry was born July 7, 1934, to Steve and Edith Stevens in Ashland, Ohio. On May 16, 1952, he married Donna (Yaske) Stevens and began a marriage spanning over 62 years until her death in 2014. Together they raised three children and lived in Ashland, Ohio, Anaheim, California, and Toledo, Ohio.
The ultimate Cleveland Browns and Cleveland Indians fan, he was a very loving and kind soul willing to help anyone in need. A fantastic crane operator, bowler, skeet shooter, fisherman, and golfer, Larry also loved to metal detect, tend to his vegetable garden, play the lottery and scratch-off tickets, play poker, drink beer and smoke cigars. Larry relished being around all types of kids. He never let a small child escape sight without waving, grinning, and ensuring their smile matched his. It wasn't uncommon for him to reach into his pockets to find an extra dollar bill or piece of rogue candy.
He was the last surviving sibling of 12 brothers and sisters. Left behind to mourn Larry's passing is his devoted Son, Michael (Joy) Stevens, Daughters, Diana (David) Hurley, and Sheri (Kevin) Warner. Also mourning his passing are his six grandchildren, Rhonda, Jenni, Nick, Justin, Neil, and Tyler. Four great-grandchildren, Isabelle, Elisabeth, Eli, and Nora. Brother in law Renny Crenshaw and several nieces and nephews.
