Lawrence "Larry" Edward Urdahl

Lawrence (Larry) Urdahl, 91, fell asleep in death on June 6, 2026, in Libby, Montana. Larry was born on July 18,1934 to Mildred (Billie) and Albert Urdahl in Poplar, MT. He was the second oldest of his three brothers and two sisters.  His family moved from Popular to Libby in 1942, where his dad started work at the Zonalite Mine. He fondly remembered his childhood living in South Libby, swimming in Mill Ponds and roaming the neighborhood with his friends, always looking for their next adventure. Larry met Kay Howard at the Blue Bear Cafe, where she was working as a waitress. They fell in love and were married on October 30,1955.  They were blessed with two loving sons, Larry and Tommy. Through the years, Larry worked many different jobs from setting pins at the local bowling alley and the railroad as a young teen, working in the woods and eventually buying his own logging truck.  His life was spent enjoying his family and friends, camping at the local lakes, family gatherings at their home and of course the bowling leagues with his lifelong buddies.  Later in life, as they dealt with numerous health challenges Larry cared for Kay for many years until she passed in 2024. He had a soft heart and a loving spirit.  He is survived by his son Larry (Lynda); 3 grandsons; Tyler (Jesse), Travis (Bridgett) and Trenton (Courtney); brother Butch Urdahl (Marlys); 9 great grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his Wife Kay; his parents; four siblings; and his Beloved son Tommy. He will be lovingly remembered and greatly missed.
