Larry Marshall Honea

WINDSOR – Larry Marshall Honea, 68, passed away peacefully in his home on Dec. 28, 2024 after a long hard battle with cancer. He was born on July 10, 1956, a son of Lawrence and Carrie (Hollis) Honea.

Larry grew up in Fayetteville, Tennessee and was a graduate of Central High School in the class of 1974. When a job brought Larry to Maine, he met the love of his life, Charlene Gracie and the two were married on Oct. 21, 1989. They settled on Shuman Road in Windsor, and became parents to a daughter, Kaitlyn.

Although Larry held many jobs over the years, he primarily worked as a carpenter, and operated his own business, Quality Carpentry. His skill led him to work on many local homes, businesses and municipal buildings as well as work out of state. Larry’s last job was working as the lead locksmith for the Maine Military Bureau in Augusta.

Larry was an outdoorsman who enjoyed fishing on China Lake, boating, hunting, four wheeling and watching Nascar. A skilled carpenter, Larry was known for his woodworking expertise, crafting many creative pieces over the years. Larry made many wonderful memories with his family; in October he was proud to have fulfilled his dream of walking Kaitlyn down the isle and dancing with her at her wedding. Larry will be remembered as a loving family man who enjoyed the simple things in life.

He was predeceased by his parents, and his wife, Charlene.

Larry is lovingly survived by his devoted and loving daughter, Kaitlyn (Honea) Socquet and her husband, Nick; his sister, Debbie Sydnes and her husband Jimmy, and his brother, Kenneth Honea and his wife Patsy; brother in law, George E. Gracie Jr. and his wife Barbara; nieces and nephews: Amy, Joey and Chad Sydnes, and Adam Honea and his wife Kelley and Alison Ramsey and her husband Jason. In addition, Larry is survived by many close friends, including Bob and Cindy Riley, Sue Phillip, and the boys on the hill at Camp Keyes.

A memorial visitation will be held on Saturday Jan. 11, 2025, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Plummer Funeral Home, 983 Ridge Rd., Windsor, ME 04363.
