Even though I didn't know Harry very well, he shared with me some wonderful touching stories that I will never forget. He was a kind and gentle man and I can't wait to see him again in the new system! My condolences to Dot and family.

Harry was a lovely person and a good friend. Always ready to give a helping hand. Kal and I loved him dearly. I can still see him sitting at the table and writing his letters. He wrote to a lot of people and those letters were appreciated by all that received them. We are so looking forward to the New System where we will see Harry again and all the rest of our loved ones.
