Obituary for Lawrence 'Larry' Gudenkauf
Lawrence “Larry” Gudenkauf, 60, of Delhi, Iowa, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, June 19, 2020, at his home in rural Delhi. Services are pending at Bohnenkamp-Murdoch Funeral Home & Cremation Service, Manchester, Iowa.

Larry was a lifelong farmer who loved walking his fields and raising cattle. He was an avid collector of Oliver tractors and classic cars. He also enjoyed a 25-year career as a postal letter carrier. He valued the many family and work relationships he had over the years and considered himself lucky to have good people around him. One of his favorite quotes was “Life’s Good” (LG). He was always willing to lend a helping hand, always had a smile on his face regardless of the weather, and was known as “Postman Larry” to so many.

He is survived and lovingly remembered by his mother, Ann Gudenkauf of Manchester; one brother, Marv Gudenkauf of Manchester; four sisters, Joann (Steve) Metz of Keswick, Janice (Greg) Lawrence of Delhi, Karen (Dean) Lucas of Manchester, Linda (Seth) Ringgenberg of Blue Springs, MO; nieces and nephews, Kellie (Nate) Byrd, Christine Metz, Brian (Brittany) Metz, Erin (Ryan) Dreessens, Ryan Lawrence, Nichole Lucas, Kristin Lucas, Michalea (Zach) Shannahan, and Makenna Ringgenberg.

Larry was preceded in death by his father, Gerald Gudenkauf; one brother, John Gudenkauf; and one niece, Heather Lucas.

Visitation and service information will be posted when finalized.
