Laurance Vincent Eberle
On March 9th, 2019, Laurance Vincent Eberle passed away peacefully with his family by his side.
Larry was the dear son of Dr. John Paul Eberle and the late Margaret Thomas Eberle. He was the best friend and beloved husband of 40 years to Lynn Boeckmann Eberle. He was the loving father of Patrick (Molly), Paul (Emily), and Charlie (Jenny) and the much adored Papa of Annie, Lucy, Finley, and Sullivan. Larry was a kind and fun-loving brother to John (Mary), Connie Schobel, Carolyn (Steve) Hoerr, Nancy (Ryan), Janet Stasney, and the late David Eberle and Jerry Eberle. Larry was also a cherished brother-in-law, uncle, godfather, neighbor, co-worker, and friend.
He was an artist, whose many talents enriched the lives of everyone he knew and served as a foundation for a long and successful career in the media industry. Larry loved to play guitar, go fishing, ride his bike, and spend time with family and friends at his favorite place, his lake house in Cuba, MO. Larry brought energy and humor wherever he went. We’ll miss his clever words, his magical voice, and his big heart. We love you, Larry.
Services: A celebration of life will take place on April 14th, 2019 from 2-7 p.m. at Mike Duffy’s Pub and Grill located at 124 W. Jefferson Ave., Kirkwood, MO 63122.

We’re thinking of you all today as you celebrate Larry’s life and many memories…
I’m just learning of Larry’s passing. My sympathies to his family and colleagues. In the 1990s I worked with Larry and his team at Eberle Productions as contractor. Recently, I came across some pictures and a video from our work together and it brought a flood of fond, indelible memories. One of the obituaries I read mentioned his good humor; absolutely!
During the short time we worked together, he had a huge influence on my development as a presenter. I was relatively new to the project and young. He NEVER talked down to me or treated me as less than others on the team. He continuously showed me respect and asked my opinion. Larry patiently coached me to a level of performance that I didn’t know I had and taught me invaluable life-lessons along the way. To this day I use some of his “dominant affirmation” coaching methods. He was one of the “original” sports psychologists.
May his memory and his influence live on through his extended family and friends.
