Larry was born June 15, 1942 to Marvin and Wilma (Auch) Zeeb in Yankton, SD.

Larry was united in marriage to the love of his life Marjorie Freier for 60 years. They purchased a farm four miles south of Menno. Along with farming, he worked many other side jobs doing electrical work with his father, Lehr Well Drilling, Menno Mercantile. In 1996, Larry and Carl Zeeb bought Zeeb Construction, known as The Blade Runners.  Larry retired from the Blade Runners after 17 enjoyable years.

Larry was well known for many things but here are two that left the biggest impression. One of them being, his big hand wave he would give everyone.  The second one would be his big hugs.

Larry is loved, remembered and survived by his loving wife Marjorie, his two daughters Bonnie Bauer of Houston, TX, Tammy (Jerry) Fischer of Menno, SD, one granddaughter Sydney Simon of Guthrie, OK, three brothers Curtis (Elaine) Zeeb of Lesterville, SD, Milo Zeeb of Phillip, SD, Scott (Mindy) Zeeb of O’Neill, NE,  and one sister Renay (Virgil) Souhrada of Tabor, SD. Plus many nieces and nephews and close dear friends.

Larry was preceded in death by his parents Marvin and Wilma (Auch) Zeeb and his twin brothers Max and Mark Zeeb.
