WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2018 HERMISTONHERALD.COM • A5 RECORDS OBITUARIES DEATHS Larry Roger Liedtke Eugene June 20, 1949 - February 17, 2018 Larry Roger Liedtke was born on June 20, 1949, in Albany, Calif., to Roger and Margaret (Thorp) Liedtke. The fam- ily moved to Herm- iston when Larry was a baby, the mid- dle child of three siblings. As a child, Larry was active in Boy Scouts, grow- ing up on Lathrop Street in the house Liedtke his parents built. In Hermiston Larry worked at Safeway, hauled watermelons and bucked alfalfa. He played for Hermiston High School’s tennis team, graduating in 1967. Larry’s mother later married Walter Liebe. After high school he met (Martha) Jill Schmidt, whose family had recently moved from Heppner; the two were insepara- ble for the next 50 years. They attended Blue Moun- tain College their fresh- man year then transferred to the University of Ore- gon, where Larry earned a bachelor’s degree in phi- losophy and a master’s degree in education. The couple married in 1970 and moved to Ger- many. After returning to Oregon, Larry worked each summer with the U.S. Forest Service. Larry taught at the University of Oregon for three years before becoming a middle school teacher in Eugene, where he remained for almost three decades. After Larry and Jill retired, they spent four years teaching in Taiwan and two years teaching in South Korea. Larry posi- tively impacted thousands of lives, and was adored by students and peers for his humor, jack-of-all-trades talents, upbeat personal- ity and willingness to help wherever needed. Larry was an avid sailor and aspired to some- day sail around the world. An accom- plished scuba diver, he volun- teered at the Oregon Coast Aquarium cleaning tanks, and traveled to many countries, but always returned home to Hermis- ton at least once a year. He was an enormous Univer- sity of Oregon fan, a car- penter, voracious reader, and loved classic films and history. He enjoyed tennis, outdoor activities, and always had numerous projects in various stages of completion. Larry loved being goofy with kids, tak- ing friends on sailing or diving trips, and endeared himself to nearly everyone who ever met him. Most of all, he was a proud father, devoted husband, and loyal friend. Larry is survived by his wife, Jill, sons Pete and Kurt, daughter Heidi, son-in-law Mark Scharen, daughter-in-law Emily (McConnell) Liedtke, brother Terry, sister Pat Duvall, stepfather Walt Liebe, grandchildren Evie and Mady Liedtke, and many extended family and friends who adored him. Larry passed away sud- denly during an annual family reunion in Hermis- ton, surrounded by family.
