Larry Gant, 79, of Lake Havasu City died peacefully Wednesday,
September 18, 2019 at home with his family by his side. Larry was born
in Oakman, Alabama on October 20, 1939. He was the son of Birge May
and Adeline Blackston Gant. He was a veteran of the U.S. Navy, and
worked for more than twenty years as a welder for the Los Angeles
Department of Water and Power.

Larry had a passion for flying and was a licensed pilot for many
years. He was active in the Havasu 4-Wheelers and found great joy in
preserving the beauty of the desert. He and his family have enjoyed
Lake Havasu City for more than forty years. This beautiful city held a
special place in Larry's heart because in 2002 he made it his
permanent home in retirement.

He is survived by his wife, Patti Gant of fifty-five years; two
children, Marcus Gant (David Benjamin) of Palm Springs, California,
James Gant (Karen Erwin) of Granada Hills, California; one
granddaughter, Hayley Gant of Granada Hills, California; and one
brother J.P. Gant of Huntsville, Alabama.

In lieu of flowers and cards, the family asks that donations be made
to River Valley Hospice of Lake Havasu City.
