I was extremely sad to hear about the passing of Uncle Harry. I have many wonderful childhood memories of spending time with Harry, Sherry, Nick, and Sam. Mostly fishing, boating, or riding ATV´s in West. RIP Harry

So sad. Harry was a man of God, a good husband, dad, and grandparent. He was also a good friend to me and all who knew him. I smile when I think of him, and know he is in Heaven, with our Lord and Savior. Prayers for all the family.
