In memory of Larry Muntner

After the last BPMS Meeting the officers were contacted by Mitchell Muntner. His brother, Larry had passed away from a heart attack. He was 59 and is survived by his twin brother, Mitchell, and bride of four months, Alicia Harris.

Larry was a life long Brooklynite. His High School years were spent at Erasmus Hall and he studied accounting at Kingsborough Community College. Earlier, he was a payroll clerk and for the last 20 years he worked as a mail clerk for the Department of Labor.

Since he’s been a member of the BPMS for many years (the Brothers joined back during our Floyd Bennett Field days), I think we will remember Larry best for his enthusiasm for so many aspects of the modeling hobby. He was part of a modeling team with his twin brother Mitchell and for 25 years they enjoyed building plastic as well as radio controlled models. More recently they discovered the joy of building wooden ships.

In his brother’s memory, Mitchell plans to keep the hobby in his heart and his life.
