Larry George Hartman, 81 years, of Hicksville, Ohio, passed away Wednesday, February 22, 2023, at Parkview Medical Center, Fort Wayne, Indiana.  Larry was born August 15, 1941, in Fort Wayne, Indiana, the son of the late George and Anna (Meyer) Hartman.  He was a 1959 graduate of Fairview High School.  On June 15, 1963, Larry was united in marriage to Diana Marten.  He worked at B.F.
