Boyer

W. Larry Boyer, 85, of Butler, passed away peacefully at his home on Wednesday, Dec. 24, 2025, after a short battle with leukemia.

Born Jan. 16, 1940, in Butler, he was the son of the late Wilbert L. and the late Edwina (Wagner) Boyer.

Larry was a graduate of Butler High School and went on to attend Robert Morris College. He then was drafted by the U.S. Army and served his country honorably while in Korea.

Larry was a longtime attendant of All Saints Parish, St. Paul Roman Catholic Church, in Butler. He worked for McCarren's Clothing for 30 years, and then Milo Williams Jewelers and Robert Stephens Jewelers until his retirement in 2001. He had an eye for decorating and you would always see his talent on display in the windows of these Butler businesses.

Larry loved attending Drum and Bugle competitions, especially supporting D.C.I. He also enjoyed reading, yard work with his flowers, his children's and grandchildren's sporting events and playing cards.

He is survived by his wife of 58 years, Marilyn (Loutzenhiser) Boyer, whom he married Aug. 5, 1967; two sons, Samuel K. (Natalie S.) Boyer and Peter R. Boyer; his niece/daughter, Kelly Yough; his four grandchildren, Samuel II, William, Jack and Josh; and several nieces and nephews.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sisters, Doris, Thelma and Janet.
