Larry served in the United States Army as an MP in Europe and the United States, then as a
police officer for Elkhart Police Department (Indiana), General Motors in Three Rivers, MI until
he opened Starlight video and tanning with his ex wife Vicki Briggs mother of Steven and Robert
Bidelman eventually having 6 stores until his retirement. Larry loved hunting, golfing, & of
course his beloved Detroit Tigers. But most important to him was his family.
He is now at peace, no more hospitals, heart clinics. He can now breathe heavenly air!! I
Beth Bidelman was blessed with 22 years of marriage as of 6-5-16 to a wonderful husband. " I
will always wish I could've had more time with him, but in the end he was tired and is now free.
Each and everyone of us will miss him each and everyday we are on this earth.
Please light a candle in memory of Bubba
