Larry Gene Hebbert was born to Ross and Lucile (Dingman) Hebbert of rural Scotland. He was the youngest of five children and grew up on the family farm. He attended school in Scotland and graduated in 1958. Following graduation, he began farming and raising cattle on the family farm. Larry served two years in the United States Army and was honorably discharged on November 12, 1964. On August 19, 1960 he was united in marriage to Judith Carter. To this marriage Larry and Judy were blessed with two children, Mindra and Jeffrey.
Larry was a farmer and cattle producer his entire life. He was proud of his black angus cow herd, but was especially proud of his family. He cherished time spent with family and attending his children’s and grandchildren’s events. Besides farming and his cattle operation, Larry enjoyed hunting and fishing. He was an active board member in the renovation of the Lake Henry project, and a lifetime member of the Scotland VFW Post.
