Jun 01, 1943---Aug 18, 2026

Larry Livengood, 83, of Overland Park, Kansas, died at home of Alzheimer’s on August 18, 2026. He was born in Salina, Kansas in 1943 to Forrest Byron and Mrytle May Livengood. Larry was a wonderfully caring husband and father.  Larry graduated from Salina High School in 1961 and Marymount College, Salina.  He continued his education by graduating with a JD degree from Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas. He practiced law in Salina for 25 years, before retiring to Overland Park in 2010.

He was preceded in death by his parents and his younger brother, David Livengood.  Larry is survived by his wife of 31 years, Charlotte Craig and his two daughters, Susan of Salida, Colorado and Teresa of Mission, Kansas and his loyal and comforting friend, Joey.

 He served 4 years in the Army National Guard. After retiring from his law practice, he became involved in animal rescue, transporting terriers from Oklahoma to  the Wire Fox Terrier Rescue Midwest in Iowa. This involvement led to adoption of their first fox terrier.

In lieu of flowers, donations in his name may be made to Wayside Waifs in KCMO, KC Hospice in OP, KS, or the charity of your choice.

 

Larry was cremated and wished no funeral/memorial services.

To Charlotte and family, I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Larry. He was a good friend and we had some great times together when we were both living in Salina, KS. I often think about the times we were discussing sports and it always ended up regarding the "K.C. Chiefs", watching games on Sunday afternoons, going to playoff games in Kansas City and attending spring training camp in Liberty, MO. Charlotte, thank you for the years you shared with my friend, he will be missed and he dearly cared for you and his family . . . Larry.

Dear Charlotte, Larry and I reconnected, as you know, when he invited me to share a lunch in Salina with some of his friends and classmates. I enjoyed our time, finding him to be the same nice person I had know so many years ago. When I asked if he'd married, he said, "I'll be you'll be surprised when I tell you her name." I was and remembered the lovely girl I'd known at SHS. I'd love to hear from you sometime at 816.365.9999. Linda Leffingwell and Bonnie Haynie are also on my radar so maybe we could all gather. Love and condolences to you and your family, Stephanie

Larry was not just my divorce attorney, but a friend. I will miss eating tacos with him in KC and the KC Chiefs vs GB Packers banter we had. We talked cars a good bit, he loved his T-bird, but really had a thing for a rag top Corvette. He was a sounding board of reason through the many issues I encountered. Rest well my friend. You will be missed.
