Larry Stupski is remembered as the other man, hands down, who made Schwab great

Fresh out of college in 1983 I had the good fortune to work directly with Larry Stupski. Without a doubt he is one of the best people I have ever met. Tremendous discipline, extraordinary intelligence, great competitor all delivered with a kind touch. RIP.

I didn’t know Larry, but I’ve heard about his good work over the years. Thank you for the beautiful story (tribute) that allowed us all to know more about this giant of a man. We need more kind and ethical leaders like him in this business. Rest in peace, Larry.

Larry was a great guy to be around and to work for. He was incredibly focused and certainly made Schwab the great company that it became in the 80’s. Having Larry at the helm made us all feel safer as he was always on top of his game. Larry also had a fun side and those that were there will never forget his rap performance at one of our national meetings. My heart goes out to Joyce and his family. He will be sorely missed..

I remember when the announcement came that Larry had the heart attack and how nervous we were as employees of Charles Schwab. Shortly after he recovered I saw him one last time before he departed the firm and he reminded the group I was in about proper diet and being health-conscious. I never got a chance to thank him …Rest in peace Larry. My heartfelt regards to your family..

Larry was one of the kindest, gentlest souls I every knew. He was greatly loved by all his family and is sadly missed now. Prayers to all.

Larry Stupski was a great man. Very kind, loving and understanding. Larry will be greatly missed.

Whenever I met with Larry I felt as if my brain was doing push-ups. His expectations were high and his way was such that you wanted to meet them. It is with gratitude that I was able to work directly with him. He was brilliant and that is an understatement – he was thoughtful – and that is an understatement too. One of the great blessings of my life was knowing him at Schwab. How lucky Schwab was to have Larry.

I participated with Larry at the Glide Foundation Board Meetings for 8 or so years. He significantly contributed to our financial and investment management. He was a delightful presence. I knew little of his other accomplishments so what shown through is calm, thoughtfufl, caring presence was impressive. I was moved that he was so committed to the Glide philosophy of unconditional love and that he involved himself on the church side in helping to perfect the national effort to share that wisdom with other religious and non religious groups with his hands on presence. Thank you Larry. Your presence lives on.

Larry was every bit as kind and generous as people say he was.He now lives with God forever.
