He was a devoted Catholic and a 4th degree Knight of Columbus, a very hard working man who always took care of his family and helped out anyone in need. He was a very knowledgeable man who knew everything about everything, which is why we would tease and call him “Google Larry”.

After retiring, he enjoyed his leisure time with family, friends, and his much loved dog Kia. He also enjoyed his time at the gym, where he was known for being one of their most active members month after month. He loved watching the Denver Broncos all the way until this very disappointing season where he said he was switching teams.
He is survived by his daughter Tina Miller (Kenny), sons Randy Mondragon (Becky), Jeff Mondragon, Tj Coburn (Lisa), his siblings Orland Gomez, Tina Ortiz, Carol Juarez (Gilbert), nine grandchildren, and a great grandchild and many nieces and nephews.
