Larry was born on November 8, 1961, in Faribault to Marvin Edward and Barbara (Malecha) Ceplecha. He attended Montgomery High School and worked as a Processing Technician for Faribault Foods.

Larry was an outdoorsman. He mostly enjoyed his time spent on the family farm. His special interests were cutting firewood, hunting, fishing, classic cars, and playing cards with friends.

He had a special connection with his many nieces and nephews and was the life of the party at all of the family gatherings. Larry had the ability to make everyone around him smile and laugh. Family was especially important to him. He will be sadly missed by all.

Ceplecha of Lonsdale; siblings, Susan Ceplecha-Novak (Tim Murray) of Faribault, Nancy (Greg) Busch of Montgomery, Diane (Gary) Fetters of Florida, Marilyn (Greg) Pint of Lonsdale, Alan (Tracey) Ceplecha of Jordan, Steven Ceplecha (Lisa Dahl) of Lakeville, and many nieces and nephews.
