On Sunday, September 18, 2022, Larry A. Rohde, 68, passed away peacefully at home in White Earth, ND.

He was born on October 31, 1953 to Henry (Hank) and Avis (Neset) Rohde in Stanley, ND and grew up on the family farm, northeast of Tioga, ND. After graduating from Tioga High School in 1971, he went on to study mechanics at the Billings Automotive Technical School in Montana.

On June 29, 1974, Larry married Colleen Thielen. They made their home in Tioga, ND, where they raised their two children, Brandon and Kaycee. There he owned and operated auto shops for several years, starting with Larry’s Standard opening in 1973 at the young age of 20. Following the removal of Larry's Standard in 1986 due to highway development, Larry opened Larry’s Service where he worked for many more years. He had a passion for the automotive culture and enjoyed sharing that passion with his son Brandon, who worked alongside him at Larry's Service. In addition to cars, he enjoyed fishing and camping at the river, as well as a good pool game, and was even pool league champion several times.

Larry is survived by his son, Brandon (Brenda) Rohde and grandson, Henry of White Earth, ND; daughter, Kaycee (Darin) Hagerud and granddaughters, Trynitee and Haylee of Tioga, ND; sister-in-law, Carol Rohde of Tioga, ND; aunts, Florence Dooley of Vancouver, WA and Charlotte Payette of Fairview, MT; uncle, Alfred Dooley of Sidney, MT; several nieces, nephews and cousins.
