I remember the time when Mike and I were first dating and he was staying with you on Elgar Road. I called the house and you answered the phone. I thougt it was Mike. You let me talk for awhile before you told me it was you. You said "I think you might want to talk to Mike, I'm his Dad". I was SOOOO embarrassed. When I met you in person, you didn't say a word and I really appreciated that. I remember the things you used to tell me and I will treasure the memories we've had over the last 17 years. Tyler and Samantha have always adored you. We are fortunate to have had those good times. God Bless Harry! Love, Yvonne

My prayers and thoughts go out to your family. Lots of fun memories. I remember Harry also loaning me that blue pickup truck for moving and no cushion on the seat. You sat on the springs but it ran like a new truck. Lots of good memories from Boot Scooters. A heart of gold stops beating, two shining eyes at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us. He only takes the best. A million times we'll need you. A million times we'll cry. If love could have saved you, you never would have died. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone. For part of us went with you. The day God took you home.
Love ya and will miss you lots.
