 "I never thought this day would arrive so quickly, but I always knew it would." As family, friends, and community members grieve the death of Larry Schubert of Millstadt, Michigan, who died on September 24th, these sincere remarks capture their profound sorrow. In addition to being a beloved friend and father, Larry is also known for his unwavering support and advocacy of Millpond Brewery. His legacy is based on love, passion, and hard work.

Larry did much more than just provide a hand in the founding and expansion of Millpond Brewery. He had a key role in forming its physical and spiritual foundation. He was a crucial character in Millpond's history because of his knowledge, support, and unshakable faith in its mission. Larry served as both a builder and a source of inspiration, whether it was by giving guidance on a new project, providing useful skills for enhancements, or just being there with enthusiastic support.

But Larry was much more than a person associated with the brewery to his family. He was his children's mentor, greatest friend, and confidant; they could always rely on him for insight, humor, and unwavering affection. He was a beacon of light to those closest to him because of his sane voice, unending patience, and extraordinary capacity to instill trust. His son remembers him not just as a parent but also as his hero, someone whose faith and love gave him courage during every difficult time.

Visitors to Millpond know that Larry was its most vocal and ardent supporter. He never missed an occasion to express his delight in the brewery's progress and applauded every accomplishment, no matter how minor. The Millpond experience was as much about him as it was about the beer. People in the neighborhood, friends, and customers will all remember his contagious excitement and how he made everyone feel appreciated and welcome.

There is an unfillable gap created by Larry's abrupt death. The humor he brought to family get-togethers, the steady hand he provided at trying times, and the unreserved encouragement he offered are all missed. However, his legacy and the lives he impacted continue to carry on his spirit. 

Carrying on his legacy for his family, particularly his kids, entails working hard every day to produce something that would make him proud. His son has promised to go on brewing with the same fervor and commitment that his father taught him, paying tribute to Larry with each pour.
