In Loving Memory of CMSgt (Ret.) Larry Lee Babb: Happy Birthday Dad

We miss you

Larry Lee Babb

April 7, 1948-October 19, 2008
Chief Master Seargent Larry L. Babb was Chief of Logistics for Det 1 AF Operational Test and Evaluation Center (AFOTEC) when he retired from the Air Force in 1986 after proudly serving 20 years of continuous service. While the military and service to his country occupied his life, dog training, hunting and fishing fulfilled him to the end, Larry and his wife Dana began what became a lifetime comitment to teaching people to train their dogs in 1974. They trained in New Mexico, Western Europe and then Washington. Paws-Abilities became the venture of the Greater Seattle Area's only husband and wife dog trainig team. Starting with classes in the community recreation centers then opening the doors of Paws-Abilites Training Center. Larry's love and respect for dogs and his knowledge of canine behavior made him an effective trainer with an uncanny knack for communicating with dogs, and more importantly, with their humans. He had a way of combining serious and innovative instruction withdoses of dry, and often wry, humor to make dog trainig fun and effective.

From the dogs you helped train: We'll miss you, Uncle Larry! From the rest of us: Your departure is a truly sad and tremendous loss and you will be greatly missed. We will always remember, however, your deep and uniquely resonant voice, commanding:
"Forward!...and Praise a Goooooooooood
Dog!!!"
