Meridian High Wildcats '58: Larry Tyner

A Tribute and Celebration

We were the class of 1958, members of the Greatest Generation as well as children of the Greatest Generation. Born in 1940, we are also called members of the Traditional Generation.
Our childhood, post World War II, "was the best of times . . . it was the age of wisdom . . . it was the epoch of belief . . .it was the season of Light . . . it was the spring of hope . . . we had everything before us . . .we were all going direct to Heaven . . . ." (A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens.) At least, that's the way I felt about it. We were truly blessed.

Larry Tyner

Charlotte and I have been married 46 years. We are blessed with a daughter, son and eight grandchildren. Daughter Stacey, is a CPA and attorney in Atlanta. She has three sons. My son, Lee, is an attorney and the General Counsel for Ole Miss. He has three boys and two precious daughters.

I have a BS in Mathematics from Mississippi College. My most fulfilling achievements, other than family, include serving on the board and as President of the Board of Trustees for Palmer Home for Children and as President of the 3,000 plus member Mississippi Forestry Association. I had a 35 year career managing external affairs lobbying across the South for Weyerhaeuser Company.

As retirees, we now split our time enjoying Beech Mountain, NC in the summer and Oxford, MS and Orange Beach, AL the rest of the year.
