The mission's geographical boundaries in- clude the eastern side of the state of Nevada, plus small portions of Arizona and Cal- ifornia. Densley became a Dis- trict Leader within his mis- sion with a district usually comprised of fonr to six mis- sionaries. He later became a Zone Leader over a zone of about four districts. In these positions he was able to motivate and train other missionaries and track data for the mission. When asked what was most surprising about being a missionary, Densley re- marked on how nonstop the effort was.

The address is 1200 Connection St., Shelton. His family hopes you will find time to join them in a celebration of his life. He enjoyed everyone and was quick to offer help to anyone who needed it. The most dangerous thing you could say to Larry was "such and such a person needs help." He would be off to help them without waiting to see if anyone else was coming. He never sought recognition for anything; he was grateful and honored to be in a position where he could be of assistance. Three times he was elected to be the commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and served the Vets honorable and faithfully. Even after completing his time as commander he served the VFW any way he could until the end. Larry and Peggy raised a family here in Shelton. He worked for and retired from Simpson and served the community and the Cemetery board among many other accomplishments AND never asked for more than a smile or friendly greeting in return. Please jo'mus in a farewell and final salute. Thank You Page B-6 - Shelton-Mason County Journal - Thursday, June 23, 2011
