He was born March 16, 1971, in Boston, Mass., to Dr. Larry Lee Lynn and Barbara Barnhart Lynn Plaster. The family moved to Texas before settling in Virginia in 1974. Larry spent most of his childhood in Sterling, Virginia.

While at ECU, Larry met Lori Justis and they were married in 1996. Their first daughter, Delaney Elizabeth Lynn, was born in 2004, and in 2006, their second daughter, Darcy Emma Lynn, arrived. Watching his girls grow up was the joy of his life; he loved them deeply. Larry was a devoted husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and friend.
