S. Navy.  He moved to Hammond to begin work at Youngstown Steel Mill where he was employed for 36 years.  Larry retired in 2001 from LTV Steel and then opened his own home improvement business,  Wiggins Repair and Improvements.  Anything involving wood and a hammer was his passion and he loved more than anything his time spent in his business.  Larry loved his family and it was felt in the way he cared for us on a daily basis.  His life was greatly enriched with the addition of grandchildren eight years ago.  Never before was his heart so full.  Larry waqs a member of Christian Fellowship Church in Hammond for 34 years and served as a Deacon, financial secretary, AWANA leader and general 'Handyman'.  In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Christian Fellowship Church or Jimmy Clark/Kid's Alive.
