Larry Wayne Dorough

SIMS — Larry Wayne Dorough, 67 of Sims, North Carolina passed away Thursday, January 2, 2020. The family will receive friends Sunday afternoon, January 26, 2020 from 2 – 4 p.m. at Rose Heights Church of God, 2120 Old Omen Road in Tyler, TX in the Fireside Room. Parking is in the back of the church.

Larry loved his Lord, Jesus Christ, his family and all things sports. While his health limited him, he did his best to attend every grandchild’s game or performance. He had a great sense of humor and never missed an opportunity to joke with those around him. He will always be remembered for his books, his Bibles, and his Mountain Dew – of which there were many of each!

Larry is survived by his daughter, Dacia Edmonson and husband, Chris of Bullard; son, Trent Dorough and wife, Johnna of North Carolina; grandsons, Benjamin and Zachary Edmonson of Bullard and Connor Dorough of North Carolina; granddaughter, Natalie Dorough of North Carolina; sister, Rita Hindman and husband, David of Texas and his brother, Mike Dorough and wife, Donna of Texas.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Simeon Ray Dorough, Ken and Lavada Jean Finch. Raised by Jim and Edna Cunningham.

In lieu of flowers the family has asked for any stories of Larry that friends can share.
