Larry Edmund Homeier

Larry Edmund Homeier, known fondly as "Skip,” passed away on August 8, 2024, in Salina, Kansas. Born on November 1, 1943, in Ellsworth, Kansas, Skip was known for his dry sense of humor and deep love for his family.

Skip was an avid fisherman and hunter, passions he eagerly shared with his family. As a long-time member and Treasurer of the Salina Kennel Club, Skip was the go-to expert for training hunting dogs, a role he and his wife, Pam, embraced as obedience trainers.

For 30 years, Skip worked at National Bank of America as a Computer Programmer and Vice President. After his retirement from the bank, he served as the Custodian for Trinity United Methodist Church for several years. His meticulous nature made him the family’s trusted fixer, whether building a shelf or repairing a sink.

Skip graduated from Ellsworth High School in 1961 and earned a degree in History from Kansas Wesleyan University in 1966, where he also met Pam. Their bond grew during their college years, leading to a life filled with love and shared passions.

Skip also loved movies and reading, finding joy in stories on screen and in books. His life was defined by his steady presence, reliability, and deep care for those around him.

He is survived by his wife, Pam Homeier of Salina; his sister, LaVonne Shawley (Claude) of Linwood; and his three daughters, Stacy Came (Chad), Jill Phelps (Scott), and Nicki Seay (Dewayne), all of Salina. He also leaves behind six grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

Visitation will be on Friday, August 16th from 6 to 8 p.m. at Ryan Mortuary, 137 N 8th St, Salina, KS 67401. Funeral services will be on Saturday, August 17th at 11 a.m. at Trinity United Methodist Church, 901 E Neal Ave, Salina, KS 67401.
