Larry Yarbrough

On February 26, 2024, Larry Neal Yarbrough, a man whose life was characterized by his talent, humility, and supportive nature, peacefully passed on. Born on November 8, 1954, in Alamo, TN, Larry was an engaging individual who brought smiles and warmth to those around him. His bright spirit was a beacon of comfort to those he met, and his smart intellect paired with his humble heart made him a joy to be around.

Larry was a master of his craft, spending his career in construction, a testament to his hard-working and talented nature. He built not only sturdy structures but also strong relationships and a supportive community around him. He was a proud resident of Gadsden, Tennessee, where he enjoyed the simple pleasures of life - fishing at Humboldt Lake and spending quality time with his loved ones; especially his K-9 companion, Cooper. He had a profound love for his family, and his supportive nature made him the rock his family leaned on in times of need. As Mahatma Gandhi once said, "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others" - this quote embodied Larry's life and his selfless dedication to those around him.

Larry is survived by his loving wife of 46 years, Connie Jo Yarbrough, and his siblings Johnny Yarbrough, Wayne Patterson, Jack Patterson, Kathy Vannetter, Barbie Patterson, Kelly, Edward and Jerry Yarbrough, Dorothy Yarbrough, Sara Yarbrough, Sara Yarbrough, Connie Yarbrough, Brenda Yarbrough and Vicky. He was preceded in death by his parents, Ross Yarbrough and Sara Patterson, his brother Monty Patterson, and his sister Debbie Patterson.

A memorial service to honor Larry's life will be held at 1:00 pm on March 9, 2024 at Humboldt Lake. Family and friends are asked to meet at the pavilion.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials and donations be made in his honor to Foundations Bank in Alamo, TN c/o Connie Yarbrough.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to the Mayor of Gadsden and the men and woman of the Crockett County Ambulance Service for always lending a hand when needed and the wonderful care they gave Larry over the years.
