PP Larry was also a Paul Harris Fellow, PHF +3
Larry spent a tremendous amount of time supporting his community and he was genuinely respected by all who knew him.
One of his legacy projects was to run the Tsunami Scholarship Fund, established in 2006, which he run until 2012.
Most recently, Mr Amsden played the vital role in 94 children at Baan Sainamyen School in Patong last month celebrating their Swim Safe Graduation on successful completion of a 10-week course sponsored and administrated by the Rotary Club of Patong Beach.
Please remember PP Larry as the outstanding, hardworking Rotarian he was. We, the Rotarians convey our heartfelt condolences to his beloved wife Khun Tim, to his family, to his countless friends, admirers and followers.
PP Larry’s funeral service started yesterday evening at the Patong temple behind the football field along the beach road.

Tomorrow Friday night, September 27 is a Rotary night and we invite all Rotarians who knew PP Larry to attend the monk’s prayer, starting at 19:30.
