Larry Brian Fynn 1940 ~ 2013 Larry Brian Fynn was born on August 16, 1940 in Edmonton, Alberta an only child for Isabelle (Biddy) and George (Buster) Fynn. Larry was a very devoted son and was mutually loved and enjoyed by his parents. Most of Larry's life was spent in the trucking industry which he started at 14 years of age when he lied to get his first job. Buster supported his passion for trucking and bought him his first truck when Larry was 16 years old. Larry went on to be the co-founder of the successful trucking company L.A.N.D. He was able to retire at an early age and directed the majority of his time and energy to community projects all the while successfully farming. Some of his community involvement was: as President with the Dawson Creek Golf and Country Club and accomplished the building of the driving range enjoyed by many; President of the Pouce Coupe Community Foundation; with the development of the Riverview Cemetery Columbarium;Alderman of Pouce Coupe, and more recently until his illness the Mayor of Pouce Coupe Village. Larry will always be remembered for his many strong leadership qualities, always a voice of reason and one you could count on to get the job done. Larry was a hard worker and wouldn't ask anyone to do more than he would. Over the years his wisdom and council was enjoyed by both his family, and friends.
