Although I lost contact with him years ago, I still think of Harry and I am so sorry I did not know sooner of his transition. Immediately after his military career concluded and while not mentioned in the obituary, about 45 years ago, Harry worked for several years at the Veterans Administration Headquarters in Washington, DC before returning to Louisiana. During that time at the VA, we were colleagues, and for years after that, he and I were great friends. As he was older than I, he was like my brother and mentor. Heaven received a great man!

Our family has lost a good man. We always thought so highly of our cousin. He treated Auntie, Walter, mom, Jane and I, so well and with so much love. He was always there when we needed him. And he and Carol fed us!! Oh, So much good seafood! I always hoped to be able to spend more time with him, driving around Louisiana and just talking. Sometimes, unfortunately, life gets in the way. We moved away ...I really miss him.
