I have not been active on this forum for quite some time and neither has the subject of this post, but for those who have been here for a while, particularly German coin collectors, I'll share the following:
Member 3Mark, aka Larry Gray, passed away last Friday after a year-long battle with cancer. Larry was a long time collector who was recognized numerous times for his outstanding PCGS Registry sets. He was also my good friend, and I'll miss him. -Preussen

What a great loss. He'll be missed by many.
May his soul rest in peace.
Sorry to hear. Rest in peace Larry.

This is sad news. Larry was one of the first to reach out a hand to me when I first joined the forum. He was deeply knowledgable about German States, and equally as passionate. I remember being in awe at his network of collectors and dealers. I have over a decade of messages from Larry offering thoughts, reactions, encouragement, and advice. Rest in peace, 3Mark.
I remember his posts here and had some great coins. That's sad to hear.

I have fond memories of Larry
Like others who have already stated, Larry was very knowledgeable in his field of collecting and always remained helpful to anyone who asked .
I will miss his too.
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
Sorry to hear.
My condolences on the loss of your friend @Preussen
May he rest in peace

Oh this is very sad news. He was always very nice to me when I first started collecting world coins. My condolences to his family and close friends. After a lengthy fight with cancer, I think the important to remember that he’s no longer in pain.
RIP Larry.

So sorry to hear. I met Larry once at the ANA, very knowledgeable and friendly. He shared with me his passion for collecting and the 3 Mark set that he had put together. Condolences to his family, May he rest in peace.
