My condolences go out to the Campos family. May God be with you all through this difficult time. Larry will be truly missed by all of us on the PHS forum.

David M. Bunday (1965)

 My condolences to Larry Campos's family. I remember him being a great person and a fair person he was a great supervisor at Catapillar tractor company. I worked with him and for him For a few years a great person. He'll be greatly missed.

Ron Wilske (1964)

Condolences to all who knew Larry Campos.  I know all of you will miss him.  Even though he was a good and fast friend to my younger brother, Mike, I knew Larry very well during the years between my graduation in 1964 from Pacific and my graduation in 1969 from San Jose State.  I lost contact with Larry after that, but I had spent many hours celebrating with him and sharing many occasions and travels.  His passing is far too early.  I hope we all realize that getting back together with old friends is not something we will be able to do forever.  Enjoy your days of the present, but don't ever forget your past.  I have missed not being around Larry for the past 45 years; I will now miss not being around him forever.  May you rest in peace, my younger old friend.

William (Bill) Egler (1966)

I am very saddened to hear of Larry's passing. My condolences to all his family, class mates and friends. I didn't know many at Pacific High, but Larry was always very friendly and accepting to me. He is now with our Lord and may he be at peace.

Sharon Whalen (Talsma (Previously Johnson)) (1967)

So sorry to hear of Larry's passing.  He was always posting on this site and I gather that his life was not always so great especially with his experiences in Vietnam.  My heart breaks for his family and I will keep them in prayers.  Thank you so much for your service to our country.

Susan Silva (Freitas) (1964)

Merry Christmas to all my fellow alumni and my wishes for a Happy New Year for everyone!

Ronald Jones (1967)

Vince...I hope you are feeling well this Christmas eve.  I have followed many posts on this site, but none more shocking than the loss of Larry Campos.  He and you both took time to encourage me at a time when I was very ill.  I still have Leukemia & lung issues, but God has done a wonderful work.  I am now able to do much more, and no longer need Oxygen.  Although I have to hire out some routine tasks, I can do most of the yard work, and light maintenance.  Thanks for your encouragement, and prayers.

I have prayed for the Campos family, after this sudden loss.  He seemed like such a caring, kind person.  I know you two were frequently encouraging each other.  I know Larry will be missed by many.  

May the Lord strengthen you and your wife, as you go through the difficult journey of treatment, this new year, and may there be a great outcome.  Know that He will be with you folks, every step of the way.  We are praying.

Vincent Acosta (1967)

ron i am very happy you are doing so well compared to before. it must be great not to need oxygen now. most of us now days have to hire out for some chores. i am still running around with my oxygen. the good lord has kept me around and i am greatful for that.

yes the loss of larry was very much a shock. i have also prayed for his family. i miss my buddy. he was a real trooper pushing forward as long as he could. he was very ill for so long. he encouraged a lot of people that were struggling along and depressed. he encouraged my wife and i during this difficult time. now we will have to finish with him gone. 

Judy Spears (Delzer) (1965)

Love and prayers especially for the unwell, discouraged, greaving and lonely during this season that is a challenge for so many. May the Lord comfort you and give you hope and strength. Merry Christmas and a healthy New Year filled with forgiveness, peace and love to all.

Here is a link to Coach Johnston's obituary.  He loved baseball and teaching!

Sue Ferreira (Nunes) (1967)

James JJ Johnson's funeral services will be at The Church of the Assumption on Jan. 5 at 10:30 a.m. in San Leandro, 1100 Fulton Avenue. Hopefully, some of you can make it and show your support for fallen coach and Viking.

Dean Martinetti (1978)

Sorry to hear about Mr. Johnston.  I remember him well from when I was attending Garfield during the time my fellow Vikings were most likely playing for him.  Loved talking St. Louis Cards and was a very special man and coach.  Will be missed by many.

Alan Dunn (1964)

Rest in Peace Coach.  While not a baseball player I remember him helping coach track 

Alan Dunn (1964)

The funeral servfice was very respectful and honored coach and his life.  The service was an hour long and people were invited to go to the cementary which is in San Pablo if they wished to attend the burial service.

Dean Martinetti (1978)

Thanks Alan for the post.  Yes, it was a special service for a special man.  Always good to pay respects to others who played a role in your life one way or another.  Thanks Sue for posting the details.  Hope to see my fellow Vikings at the All Class Picnic later in July.  Happy New Year!
