Larry Griner moved from southern CA back to his hometown of
Baltimore to relieve his brother who was caring for his mother
Norma, who suffered from Alzheimer's. This temporary plan
eventually turned into a long-term commitment as a full time care
partner and caregiver.
Larry has stepped into the public eye to share their story and
journey first for fun, and now for support and inspiration. He
began recording videos of his mother singing/performing and posted
them on social media which gained a large fan-base for Norma
worldwide. Larry found that he could help his mother's mood and
create some magic moments in their lives by playing and singing
familiar music. Norma had a very large following of fans worldwide,
many who were also caregivers. Larry has and still receives 1000’s
of messages of encouragement and gratitude on the impact the videos
he has and still shares on Facebook and YouTube.
Since his moms passing, he has begun advocating for all caregivers
and the necessary awareness of the ‘Emotional’ toll that caregivers
suffer.
