I was shocked today to learn of Harry's passing and on behalf of Canron please accept our deepest and sincere condolences. We enjoyed his honest spirit in union negotiations and respected him as a very accomplished and hard working welder. We are sure the family will miss him and it doesn't seem right that he should leave his family at such a young age. Best wishes Jim McLagan Canron Senior Vice President (retired)
