Larry Bush Jr. "Sonny" Obituary

Larry Thomas Bush Jr.  entered rest surrounded by loved ones on December 31st, 2022, in Phoenix, Az. Larry was born December 15th, 1989, to Larry Thomas Bush Sr and Yolanda Colelay Bush in Harrodsburg, Ky. Larry was an only son. His hobbies were fishing and bike riding. He enjoyed fishing at Little Bear Lake with the whole family. He liked to ride his bike at the skatepark and anywhere he could ride. He loved all the friends he made in his lifetime, and he kept in contact with all his childhood crew. He loved to help others, and he expected nothing back in return. Larry treated everyone with respect and always used manners. He didn't look down on anyone. Larry greeted everyone with his big smile and a hug. He had a big heart. Kids were his favorite. Because of their innocence and cuteness. He called his niece and nephew his heart. He loved them and treated them as his own. He was their protector and provider. Larry let them know every day that he loved them. He enjoyed spending time with them. The weekends were for eating out, movies and long drives. Anything for them! He also loved his only sister, Dionne, like no other. He was the youngest but considered himself her big brother. They grew up with the same friends and doing everything together. He really enjoyed family gatherings and being among family and relatives. Catching up and eating was his passion. He loved life. He was finally where he wanted to be. He worked hard to get there without complaining. He was high on life. He was happy things were falling into places for him. He was loved by many and will be missed by many as well. He touched a lot of lives, being a good friend, being positive and humorous. Until we see you again Sonny. Rest In Peace. He is survived by his mother, Yolanda Colelay Bush; sister, Dionne J Bush; niece, Aniya Romero; nephew, Levi Romero Jr.; uncle, Kirby Colelay Sr.; aunts, Florance Kellywood and Melinda Alsenay. Larry is preceded in death by his father, Larry Thomas Bush Sr. Thank you all for being a part of my son's life. His services were held January 11th, 2023, in McNary, Az.
