Harry,
61 years have passed. I remember it like yesterday. You Ruth, and the kids. Especially Terry. The Viet Nam War changed it all for me and I got pulled away forever. I am 79 now but the memories are fresh. Some things are just not made to happen. It was a wonderful time and I enjoyed all of it.
Love and Respect To All
John Anthony Florio

I was out of town when this tragedy happen, I knew Harry just about all my life, Harry was always neat and clean, he would wear a leather jacket with knit sleves, I would see Harry walking down Taylor St. Harry would always go out of way to say hello and just talk to you, My pain goes out to his family, the love and respect he had for his wife Ruth was second to none, Harry is now at peace, God bless him and his family.

Condolences to the Aleman family. Bowen Country Club (BCC) has a lasting memorial to Harry whose name is etched on one of the bricks used in constructing the site. Our days as campers sharing the BCC experience with other Taylor Street kids remained always in the back roads of our minds. We all shared, along with Harry, those resurrected memories of : hikes to the lake, cold showers at Camp French, the swimming pool, scalp rush, Goodfeloow Hall, etc.
