Prayers for the family of Mayor Larry Bagwell. A servant leader of 40 years in Easley. A Coach who loved to show his Green Wave pride. A husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather that loved to dance. Our last time together over a beer was the best, besides the fact that he pointed out – the placeholder for our table didnt acknowledge us as Big Mayor and Little Mayor. You will be missed by many, including myself.
