He grew up in Jackson Maine working on the Family Farm. After graduating from Mount View in 1971 he worked at Penobscot Poultry. He then worked at Custom Drywall in Searsmont before finding his true passion as a mechanic and becoming self employed. Soon after high school he met and married his first wife Brenda Meier in 1974. They then had three children Christopher, Chad and Laurie. He married his second wife Wendy Jo (LeSan) Herbest where they started their forever home. Larry was a stepfather to Tiffany and Joshua. He was with Wendy for ten years before losing her in a tragic accident on August 29, 1994. It wasn't until six years later that he then met his current wife, Marjorie (Fletcher) Alexander in 2000. They later married on July 26, 2003. They spent twenty-two wonderful years together where they raised her four daughters; Renee’, Tia, Lillie and Emily. They both loved adventuring together. From snowmobile trips on his Arctic Cat to Bike week in Laconia on his Kawasaki. Larry loved working on all things with an engine and could fix just about anything with some WD40 and a pair of vise grips. Larry owned a small engine repair shop, The Jackson Sled Shed for many years. He also enjoyed anything to do with the outside, whether it be working on his crystal clear pool or drag racing his motorcycle back in the day. He spent his years enjoying what he loves most; his family, his loving wife Marjorie, his mother Doris Dodge, his sister Barbra, his son Chris Dodge and wife Jennifer, son Chad Dodge and wife Christy, Daughter Laurie Whittemore, Tiffany Herbest and fiancé Andy Smith, Joshua Herbest, Renee’ Hayward and husband Brian, Tia Billiard and husband Mike, Lillie Tuck and husband Joseph, Emily Spaulding and husband Casey, Kathy and all 26 grandchildren.
