Larry Parr (1946-2011)

Former Chess Life editor and constant chess controversialist Larry Parr passed away after a short, unspecified illness in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. In a sad irony, this comes just a few months after Larry Evans' own unexpected death, the irony coming in that Parr was one of Evans' staunchest defenders in the latter's frequent controversies.
