Obituary for Larry Henderson Stotts
Larry was born on August 17, 1935 in Minneapolis, MN and passed away June 10, 2025, at his home in Edina. He graduated from Minneapolis Southwest HS and Macalester College where he met the love of his life, Patricia. Larry and Pat started long teaching careers in Kerkhoven, MN, North St. Paul and eventually Edina, where Larry was inducted as a hall of fame teacher. Larry taught English, Humanities, Acting and Stagecraft, directed plays and coached soccer. He was influential in the lives of so many students and attended many of their HS reunions over the years. Larry also enjoyed working at Braemar Golf Course, modeling, acting, and keeping a yard that was the envy of many, all after his retirement.
Larry and Pat were married 63 years and were parents to Lori, Jim and Andy. People will remember Larry for his care and compassion in teaching. He was the teacher kids wanted to have. He had that "it" factor. The annual lip syncs that his students put on for the school were always a highlight of the school year. Larry and Pat enjoyed winters in Port Aransas, TX and summers at Quadna resort in Northern MN.
Larry was preceded in death by his wife Pat, daughter Lori, parents West and Florence and brother David. Larry, aka Gumpy and Hendu is survived by son Jim and his family - wife Crystal and daughters Katie and Molly; son Andy and his family - wife Linda and daughters Margaret, Meredith, Dorothy, and Harriet; grandchildren Joe Elton; Katie Haupert and family - husband Travis and great grandchildren Mason and Madalyn.
A memorial service will be held on August 8 at Vista Lutheran Church - 4003 Wooddale Ave. St. Louis Park, MN. Visitation will begin at 10 AM - Memorial at 11 AM with a lunch immediately following at the church. Memorials preferred to Edina High School Theater Program

Sadly, we were informed that our beloved English and Speech teacher, Larry Stotts, died last week. We will post more information, including his obituary when it is available. Personally, Stotts, was my favorite teacher at Edina. I believe we may have had him in his first year of teaching at our school. Please visit this page on our website that has more comments from classmates about their thoughts about Stotts. https://www.edina64.com/class_forums_messages.cfm?tid=40696

We are saddened by the news that Ric Davies died on Friday, March 14th. Ric and Carolyn attended our 60th reunion and I was glad to chat with him as I grabbed this photo. Our sincerest condolences to Carolyn and the Davies family.
Our sincerest condolences to Rick Giertsen and his family upon the passing of our classmate Cathy Cox Giertsen. I remember her striking eyes and lovely personality.

I thought this information may be of interest of some of our classmates. The mother of our classmate, Greg Long, recently passed away.
Elizabeth Dunn, passed away on November 9, 2024 at the age of 100
A fellow teacher shared:
I believe we both came to Edina the same year in 1968. She was a recent widow then with two young children. She was Betty Long until she remarried Jack Dunn. She taught at Cahill and Creek Valley. She lived independently at least until a year ago when I last visited her. Betty's outlook on life was always upbeat and she had a great sense of humor. Her daughter Barb Nichols also worked for Edina Schools and her son was very accomplished.

Their mom lived to 100 and spent her career teaching in Edina elementary schools.

A $75 gift to Habitat for Humanity was made in memory of our classmate, Frank Lushine, who intended on joining us at our reunion. However, Frank died on August 18, 2024 so we felt it appropriate to donate his reservation money to his favorite charity.

Reunion update- It has come to my attention that three attendees at our event last weekend have tested positive for Covid. If you were also there and haven’t been feeling well, you may want to get tested.
Frank was my neighbor on the next block over in Morningside. Gail, thanks for the memory of Frank performing magic tricks. I had forgotten about that. I was also looking forward to reconnecting with him at the reunion. So sad that won't be happening. I thought perhaps we could donate his reunion refund in his name to one of his charities from the class.

I’m pleased to announce our new website co-admin. Joanne Larson Galley has a very strong tech background and also great editing skills. Her assistance is very much appreciated. Thank you Joanne!
Welcome to our website, Larry! We are glad you joined us. We hope you are enjoying our site and hope you’ll be able to reconnect with some of our classmates. I was born in Montana and have always loved that state. What an impressive career you’ve had in medicine! Hopefully, you’ll join us in September for our 60th reunion.
