I had no idea who Larry was before I clicked on these comments, but the many stories from people who knew and worked with him. Obviously Larry was a brilliant guy who did great things, but the stories were pretty universally about what a fantastic person he was to work with. I think about that all the time with regards to how I interact with my coworkers.
