Listen to Obituary

James Larry Shrader, 81, of Hixson, Tennessee, passed away peacefully at his home on Friday, May 29, 2026.

Larry was born on December 3, 1944, in Flat Rock, Alabama, to the late J.B. Shrader and Geraldine McBryar Shrader. Just hours after graduating from Davis High School in 1964, he married the love of his life, Joan Rice. Their marriage was a testament to love and commitment for 62 years.

Larry was an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed both fishing and hunting. He spent countless hours on the water and competed in professional fishing tournaments for several years. He also worked many years in the construction industry and had a reputation for being able to fix or build just about anything that needed attention.

While Larry enjoyed many hobbies, nothing meant more to him than his family. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather who took great pride in those he loved and worked hard to provide for them.

He is survived by his wife, Joan Shrader; sons, Glenn (Connie) Shrader and Barry (Becky) Shrader; grandchildren, Dustin (Caitlyn) Shrader, Brandon Shrader, and Mandy Shrader; and great-grandchildren, Karlee Shrader and Paisley Evans. He also leaves behind many extended family members and friends who will miss him dearly.

A funeral service to honor and celebrate Larry's life will be held at 2:00 PM on Monday, June 1, 2026, in the Larry Moore Memorial Chapel of Moore Funeral Home with Brother Kelly Meeks officiating. Interment will follow at Oak Lawn Memorial Park in Bryant, Alabama.

The family will receive friends on Monday from 11:00 AM until the hour of service at the funeral home.
