After attending elementary and Biggs High Schools, Larry proudly served in the United States Navy from 1964-1968. He met his wife, DeLetha ‘Dee’ McElhaney, on December 6, 1969, and they married March 7, 1970. They had two sons, Michael Jason St. Clair, and Jarrod Scott St. Clair.

He loved God and his family. He enjoyed taking trips to Ft. Bragg and amusement parks with the kids. He also liked going to sporting events and coaching little league when the kids were young. He attended the Lighthouse Tabernacle for many years and served as a Deacon.

Larry was preceded in death by his parents; his son, Jarrod St. Clair, and his sister Janet Prickett.
