Larry Durnil

Our family regrets to inform you of the passing of Larry Durnil on December 3rd, 2019 proceeding a two year battle with cancer.

Larry was born in Santa Ana, California on December 18th, 1946. He was raised in Southern California where he enjoyed hot rodding as a teenager and was a member of the hot rod club called the Hunters.

As a young man Larry served in the United Stated Army with the 1st Calvalry Division. He was a highly decorated veteran of the Vietnam War and proud of his service. 

Larry worked as a lumber mill manger for most of his career. Over his career Larry ran several  lumber mills throughout California and even one in Ensenada, Mexico. He retired as the plant manager of True Guard in Ukiah, CA. 

Larry resided in Lakeport, California where he was active in the community. Still a hot rodder, he was a member and president of the local club Corvette's of Lake County. He enjoyed watching and playing sports including football, ocean fishing, and golf. Larry was happiest when he was spending time with his family and friends or racing his Corvette.
