GAMBLE

Larry Stanley

On Tuesday, October 25, 2016, Larry passed away suddenly at home. Larry was born in Calgary, AB, November 18, 1960, where he spent his first seven years. He moved to Red Deer, and then spent many years in Sylvan Lake, and onto Ponoka for the past 15 years. Larry was a hard worker starting at age 13 as a bus boy at Phil's Restaurant. In his late teens, he went into the oil patch working pipeline and related jobs. In his 30s, he got interested in the tree removal business and started the very successful company, "Best Price Tree Service". With a little help from a friend, Larry continued this practice and was always there for others who needed a hand up. This time of year was one he looked forward to. He could load up his trailer, and head out to the West country with his hunting buddies. Larry is survived by his sons, Branden and Justin; daughter Krista; great-granddaughter Leah; dad and mom, Lyle and Lil; brother David (Lisa); faithful four-legged companion, Bud; and aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends. Cremation has taken place. A celebration of memories will take place at a later date.
