Obituary for Larry Lynn Quandt
Larry Quandt was born on July 19, 1946 at the Fayette Co. Hospital, Vandalia, Illinois into the Christian family of Henry “Hank” and Virginia “Ginny” Roedl-Quandt one of 5 siblings. He was baptized on April 13, 1957 and confirmed his faith by the solemn rite of Confirmation on March 26, 1961 at the St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in St. Peter, Illinois.
Larry wed Peggy Lee Beccue on April 10, 1965 at the Immanuel Lutheran Church Altamont, Illinois. He was self-employed as a grain farmer, and operated Quandt grain elevator in Mason, Illinois for several years. He was the past president of the Illinois Farmers Union in Springfield, Illinois, and later retired as an over the road truck driver. Besides being a member of Immanuel Lutheran Church, Larry especially enjoyed bowling with Beccue Ford and later Quandt Grain Company. He was a life-long Democrat, enjoyed gardening, and was a “lawn warrior”.
