Larry, 64 was born in Oklahoma City on February 9, 1957 to Howard E. and Florence (Holeman) Yokley. He passed away surrounded by his family & was received into the arms of his loving savior on April 1, 2021. Larry was born with Down syndrome and throughout his life, he loved everyone unconditionally. He was blessed with a loving family that embraced & cared for him. This no doubt led to a long and special life. He enjoyed doing any work or task he was given by his family or the loving caregivers at the Center of Family Love in Okarche, where he lived for 33 years to the day. He loved animals and was always able to make a special connection with them. Beyond this, trucks and motorcycles were his passion. He loved working in the green house at the Center for many years, as well as participating in Special Olympics. Larry's favorite holiday was Christmas and he always enjoyed birthday celebrations in honor of him, family members, or any of the residents at the Center.
He was preceded in death by his parents, grandparents and numerous aunts and uncles.
He leaves cherished memories with his adoring family of four brothers; Roy Yokley & wife Erma , Howard Yokley & wife Pat, Troy Yokley & wife Carolyn, Bob Yokley & wife Linda & one sister, Susan Cochran & husband Kenny, as well as numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
