Larry Arthur Augsburger, 81, of Montgomery Texas, passed away on August 24th and has gone to be with Jesus. Larry was preceded in death by his father and mother and beloved brother Harper.
He was born on September 14th, 1940, to Lawrence (Six) and Minnie Mae in Bay City, Texas. He graduated from Lamar University with a business degree in 1963. Larry had a very successful business career rising to a key executive at Tenneco Oil E&P, successful in Private Equity, and CEO / Owner of Samik Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation. He was a firm believer in hard work and the pursuit of perfection.
Larry was an all-American and 4-year letterman at Lamar where he led the team in 3 basketball conference titles. He was also a scratch golfer that shot his age on multiple occasions. A regular who loved the big game at both Champions Golf Club & Bentwater Country Club. Larry was an all-around athlete; he even ran the Houston marathon. He loved sports, loved to compete, and loved to win.
Larry was married to Mikki for 62 loving years. Larry and Mikki had two children, Blake (wife Laura), Holly (husband Edward), and five grandchildren (Philip, Daniel, Madeline, Hannah, and Zachary). Family was always "front and center" as Larry instilled the importance of Christian family values. By far his number #1 love was always his wife, Mikki!
Larry's legacy will live on for generations to come through both his children and grandchildren. They are competitive, hard working, pursuing perfection, and driven to win, just like Larry.
He left us the greatest of all gifts, he is with the Lord and we will see him again.
