Larry Rex White was born April 23, 1932 in Runnells, Iowa, the son of Elmer E. and Beatrice “Bea” (Howard) White. He was united in marriage to Wanda Jean Warren on December 31, 1949. They were married 69 years. He spent most of his life in Clarke and Madison counties.
Larry was always a dedicated worker. He started working at age 15 and became a Jack of all trades. He was a dairy farmer for many years. He lived on Pine Ridge Farms for 40 years and worked at Super Value Warehouse in Des Moines for over 30 years. Larry was an avid tractor collector. He was family oriented, was always fair, and never met a stranger. Granddad, as he was called, loved time spent with family. All can remember the fun sledding down the hills at the farm.
He is survived by his children, Denny (Carol) White of Winterset and Carol Jean Duede of Truro; brothers, Martin White and Roger White; grandchildren, Kim (Al) Leonard, Jason (Elizabeth) White, Amanda (Shannon) McLeod, Jonna (Jeff) Christian, Jennifer Smith, and Joshua Duede; 13 great-grandchildren, Tamara Dhabolt, Troyce White, Benjamin Smith, Alyse May, Tanner Jo Osthoff, Trey White, Jakob Christian, Utonda DuBois, Eliana White, Paige White, Veda McLeod, Sullivan McLeod, Jetseta Christian; and 13 great great-grandchildren.
Larry was preceded in death by his parents, Elmer and Bea White; his wife Wanda White; a brother, Charles Edward White; and grandsons, Stacey Lee White and Steven “Toad” Smith.
