Larry was born on May 17, 1953 in Erick, Ok to Wayne and Wanda York. Larry grew up loving horses and
trucking. He later in life went into business alongside his dad, Wayne and Brother Steve to start York
Transport in 1972. After the oilfield crashed in the early 90’s he started selling cars for Wilson Motors for
a short period of time. Later went to work for Pennzoil at nights pumping and building his favorite truck
aka Little Willy hauling water during the day for himself starting York Vacuum. Keta and Larry also had
8 cattle trucks running as K&L Cattle Co. during the same time. In 1998 he also went into partnership
with Texhoma Feeders and Weldon Beck running one of the largest cattle operations in the state of
Texas in Justiceburg, TX. Larry's passions were day working, roping, raising tons and tons of kids. He
loved his family, loved his friends and had a heart the size of Texas. He never met a stranger and would
take in any stray dog, cat, horse, but mostly kids. He may have been a bit onery but was loved by so
many. Up until his dying day the man talked about nothing but trucking and the next roping.
