THE THREE STOOGES COMEDIAN WAS A COMMITTED FAMILY MAN WHO DOTED ON HIS LOVED ONES

Memories of My Grandfather, LARRY FINE

As a little girl, Kris Cutler saw her grandfather Larry Fine every Friday. “He’d pick me up from school, we’d go shopping at Hughes Market, and he’d make me a hamburger,” Kris, a proud, self-professed “pal of Larry Fine” tells Closer. “He made good hamburgers. He was also kind, wonderful and loving. He just spoiled me.”

Kris wasn’t the only one. Larry, who was born Louis Feinberg in Philadelphia and found fame as one of the Three Stooges, took great care of the people lucky enough to come into his circle. “During the war, my mother told me he’d bring soldiers home, feed them and give them a place to stay,” Kris says. “He’d do anything for anybody.”
