Larry Lee Fencer, born on December 10, 1981, in Lawton, Oklahoma, passed away on Monday, April 7, 2025, in Pryor, Oklahoma, at the age of 43. Lee had a passion for repairing different things from bicycles, at a young age to eventually growing his passion to bigger things like mechanical and electrical work. In his youth he was a dedicated member of the Salina football team playing the position left tackle. He graduated with his high school diploma from Salina High School in 1999. He then went to go work for Sigma as a forklift driver and later went to work in the poultry business. He had a contagious laugh and a heart of gold, always ready to lend a helping hand to his family. He was always doing funny impressions or reminiscing on stories of the good old days. Some of his favorite past times were fishing with his family, being informed with the present sports world, especially his longtime favorite, The Kansas City Chiefs. He was an exceptional chef in the kitchen often creating delicious meals often with spicy peppers. In his most recent years, he enjoyed watching comedy movies, working on cars, being around family, and sippin’ on a cold one. Though gone too soon his spirit will live on in our hearts. He is survived by his mother, Jackie Fencer of Jay, OK; brothers, Brett Fencer and Matthew Fencer, both of Jay, OK, and Billy Clinkenbeard of Colcord, OK; sisters, Jennifer Tanner of Little Kansas, OK, Kimmy Fencer of Kenwood, OK, Megan Downing and Christina Fencer, both of Jay, OK, and Leigha Clinkenbeard of Colcord, OK.
