He was devoted to teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ throughout Tennessee, Louisiana, Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina. Bro. Larry was the current Director of the Southeast Baptist Missions Association. He was also the Associate Pastor at the First Baptist Church in Brunswick, Georgia. Bro. Larry and his childhood sweetheart have been married forty-six years. They have lived in Brunswick for the past eight years and were members of the First Baptist Church. He was a man who boldly proclaimed the name of Jesus both from the pulpit and in his everyday life.

Left to cherish his memories are his parents of Bartlett, TN; the love of his life, Theresa Gail Wilbur of Brunswick, GA; His three sons and their families, Jason and Casey Wilbur (Caroline, Nolan, and Toby) of Callahan, FL, Jeremy and Kacie Wilbur (Riley, Ellie, and Molly) of Arlington, TN, also Jordan and BreAnne Wilbur (Spencer and Emersyn) of Chesterfield, SC; he also leaves behind a brother and his wife, Michael and Cheryl Wilbur of Munford, TN.

Bro. Larry loved to spend time with his family and friends. He enjoyed golfing and fishing in his spare time. He was also an avid supporter of his grandchildren and their extracurricular activities. Bro. Larry was very talented musically and had a wonderful voice. If you spent anytime around Bro. Larry, it was very apparent how deeply he loved his wife and always put her needs above his own. He was a selfless man and touched thousands of lives as he served the body of Christ.
