Dr. Larry D. Faris | Obituary

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Dr. Larry Dean Faris, D.D.S. He left this world on June 28, 2024. Dr. Faris was born February 27, 1937 to his loving parents Leo and Myrtle Faris. Dr. Faris was preceded in death by his parents, sister Patti Delaney, and brother Loren Faris.

Larry’s life was filled with love, laughter, and passion for his family and interests.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Janice Corrigan Faris, whom he married in 1965; daughter Valerie Faris and cherished grandson Lucas Faris; his supportive sister-in-law Cheryl Faris and brothers-in-law Joseph Delaney and Gene Corrigan; as well as much-loved nieces, nephews and a multitude of friends.

Throughout his life, Larry excelled in his professional career working with his loyal team: Deanna Blumenstein, Lisa Young, Buffy Jackson, and Kari Hammargren. Beyond his professional life, Larry enjoyed attending his grandson’s sports; outings with his fishing buddies; and trips to dental conferences with his “office family”.

Larry’s kind-hearted nature, compassionate soul and sense of humor endeared him to all who knew him. Larry’s absence leaves a void in the hearts of all who knew him but his memory will forever be cherished. May he rest knowing he was loved and will be deeply missed.

The family suggest donations be made to one’s favorite charity or to Doctors Without Borders. Family and friends may visit Dr. Larry Faris’ memorial website at www.forevermissed.com/larry-dean-faris
