Larry was born September 9, 1979 in Concord. He was the son of Larry Raymond Sechler, Sr. and Darnell Allman Sechler. When he retire from massage therapy, he went into the craft brewing industry, first in retail, later becoming head brewer at Commoners Brewery. He enjoyed creating new recipes for himself and other brewers. He spent 2 years as a self proclaimed "house husband" and chose to focus on his family. He said many times that he would never regret the time he got to spend with Grey. Most recently, he began working with his wife at Lake Norman Elementary. He took pride in doing his very best at home and work.
People easily recognized Larry with his curly ponytail and fedora. When asked how he was doing the answer was either "Peachy" or "Can't complain". He was always willing to step in and help anyone, whether a close friend or someone he barely knew. He was interested and knowledgeable about history, current events, brewing and international cuisine. He loved taking care of his family and made it a point to learn new recipes, find the perfect gift or even just send a funny or cute picture just to brighten their day.
In addition to his parents, he is survived by his wife, Shannon Nivens Sechler; and his child, Grey Sechler.
