He was born in Moncton New Brunswick and is predeceased by his loving parents Ted and Del D’Orsay. Larry and his parents moved to the Sunnylea area of Toronto at the age of one. They made a community of faith , friendship and involvement all of his growing years. He was a life time member of Royal York Road United Church and attended Sunnylea and Royal York collegiate.

Larry was married and devoted to the love of his life Carroll Dianne Gibson for 56 loving years. He was a proud member of Weston Golf & Country Club and the Society of Industrial and Office Realtors. Larry began a lifelong career in commercial real estate at the age of 19 and became a close friend and colleague to so many throughout the industry which he loved dearly. Larry was loved by his brother Alan James D’Orsay (Darla), brother in Law Gary Kidd and sister and brother in law Nancy and Jim Barber. Larry will always be fondly remembered by his children Michelle, Andrew, Stephen, Melanie, Matthew and Tina and adored Poppa to Taylor, Reese, Colin, Carmen, Lawrence Jr, and John and precious great Poppa to baby Elliott.
