Larkin James Mraz

Believe in the spirit!  -Larkin James Mraz

From the family

Our beloved, Larkin James Mraz, has passed away and is now in heaven with Jesus. He was in a tragic car accident involving a tight curve in the road while the tropical storm Debby was pouring down during our family beach vacation. No one else was injured and he was the only person in the car.

As you can imagine, our whole family is absolutely devastated that our sweet Larkin is no longer with us. We know that if it wasn't his time to go, he would still be here and it is solely our faith that is providing the peace that surpasses all understanding.

We are so proud that he finished his life's work and will now be in heaven for eternity.

He was just entering his senior year of high school and preparing to graduate early, but God gave him a different kind of early graduation.

We also know that the days, weeks, and years ahead will not be easy without him.

Larkin loved deeply, spoke softly, and was a trusted loyal friend to many. As you can see from the photos below, our boy was adventurous, always full of life, loved fishing and snowboarding, and adored spending time with his dad and brother.

The only thing that Larkin would want is for everyone to know his friend, Jesus. He was a devout believer and even repeated the phrase, "Believe in the Spirit" from a very early age.

We will use this website as the main communication place for everyone regarding the Celebration of Life and a place where you can post photos and memories of Larkin. We are grateful for the role each of you had in Larkin's life and continue to have in our family now. 

Thank you, Larkin, for the palpable joy you entered the world with and the abundance of love you are leaving us. We are so grateful for the 18 years you gave us and pray that we embrace you again in heaven one day.
Max, Sheila and brother, Noah

Larkin was my nephew and he will be dearly missed by our whole family. Larkin had such a sweet and adventurous spirit, with a very funny, dry sense of humor. He had a gift of making people feel at ease. I have many fond memories of watching Larkin on family vacations with his older brother Noah and dad Max as they fished, looked for shark teeth, and found the next adventure. Thank you Larkin for sharing your gifts with us! We love you!!

Larkin was such a special part of our lives! We enjoyed watching him grow into the man he had become. His love for adventure, nature, his family and God was his truth. His love for Zane was so pure and to watch them grow together for 15 years has been such a beautiful experience. We are so grateful to know our sweet Larki is in heaven!! So honored to love him so deeply for so many years!!
He was our family and we miss him here on this earth and look forward to seeing him again in heaven.❤️
