Larry Daniel Stinnett

In Loving Memory of Larry Daniel Stinnett

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Larry Daniel Stinnett on November 8, 2026. A proud United States Navy veteran, loving father, brother, uncle, and grandfather.

Larry was born on April 3, 1958, and proudly served his country in the United States Navy. Following his military service, he spent much of his working life as a skilled machinist at Brown Machine in Evington, Virginia. He dedicated many years to his trade, building a life marked by hard work and dedication.

To his son, Daniel, Larry was his first hero. He was a father he admired, looked up to, and learned from. The memories they made together, especially during Daniel's childhood, will always be treasured and remembered with love.

Larry was preceded in death by his father David H. Stinnett, Sr. and mother Phyllis Walker Stinnett. Larry is survived by his son, Daniel Stinnett; daughter-in-law, Ashley Stinnett; granddaughter, River; brother, David Stinnett (Joy); and nephew, Brandon Stinnett (Elizabeth).

While his time here has come to an end, the memories he leaves behind will continue to live in the hearts of his family and those who knew him. He will be remembered for the life he lived, the work of his hands, and the place he held in the lives of those who loved him.

Fair winds and following seas, Dad. May you find peace and rest. You will always hold a special place in my heart.

A memorial service celebrating Larry’s life will be announced by the family at a later date.

In lieu of flowers please consider making a donation to the Department of Veterans Affairs. 

Tharp Funeral Home & Crematory, Lynchburg, is assisting the family.
