Larry Lee Revis
March 19, 1941, Tuesday, July 11, 2023
Larry Lee Revis, age 82, passed away at his home in Fishers, Indiana, surrounded by his loving family on Tuesday morning, July 11, 2023. Born March 18, 1941 in Indianapolis, Indiana, he was the son of the late Noel Lester and Kathryn Lucille (Vesey) Revis.
Larry honorably served his country as a soldier with the United States Army and Army Reserves. After graduating from Noblesville High School with the Class of 1959, he continued at Butler University where he would study pharmacy for a short time. He later transferred to ITT Tech where he earned his associate degree in Business Administration in May of 1991. For 35 years, Larry worked in the driver check in office for US Foods, helping ensure that everything ran like a well-oiled machine
He was a member of the Noblesville Friends Church, as well as a member of the Conner Prairie Muzzle Loading Club, which complemented his interest in the Civil War era history. Larry loved to travel, and Myrtle Beach and the Great Smoky Mountains were a couple of his favorite destinations. He was also an extremely vocal Colts and Pacers fan, to which anyone within a 3-block radius of his TV on game days could attest. Of the many loves and interests in his life, music was always Larry’s greatest passion. He had a deep appreciation for music in all of its forms. After high school, he joined a band as their drummer. Music became a part of his soul. Later in life, he picked up playing the banjo and fiddle as well. Larry’s faith and his family (both 2-legged and 4) were the most important parts of his life.
Larry is survived by his loving wife, Lynn (Roeder) Revis. He and Lynn were married on January 1, 1988. Also surviving are his daughters, Miranda Rodriguez (David) of Muncie, and Megan Weir (Chris) of Fishers; his canine BFF, Margot; and by his 3 cats, Oscar, Oswald “Ozzie”, and Olive.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Noel Lester and Kathryn Lucille (Vesey) Revis; his brother, Ronald L. Revis; and by his sister, Karen Sue Dance.
A celebration of Larry’s life will take place at 3:00 pm on Saturday, July 22, 2023, at Kercheval Funeral Home, 306 E. 10th Street, Sheridan, Indiana, with visitation from 1:00 pm until the time of service.
