Not sure what to say?

I am so Sorry about your Dads passing..I can remember back in the day (1970's) when I would babysit you girls while your dad worked and your mom either bowled or was in a play and your dad had the MG Midget car..Sending my Prayers..Barb

I worked with Harry many many years ago at Herrlich's Drug Store
I was a college student and worked as a cashier and Harry was the pharmacist.
He was such a outstanding man .
Always kind and considerate and had a great sense of humor
I offer sincere condolences to his family on his loss

We would like to extend our deepest sympathies to both of you on the loss of your dad. We knew both of you and your mom and dad a long time ago. We continue to be friends with Michelle and Quang Lee, who you knew some years
ago. Punzel and Paul Rozycki

So very sorry for your loss Renee! Love and prayers to you and your family!

I will not be able to come and see you Renee, Bridgett, and Gary Gould. I thought the world of your dad. Was like a Dad I never had in a lot of ways. He taught me all I knew about Pharmacy and helped me to get my Pharm Tech license. He gave me a lot of memories as well as a lot of others, Harry was a great individual and heard he was ministering at the Church , he would be wonderful at that. I know he is in heaven visiting now with his family, friends and any one that would speak with him. I...

God has another very special angel now, Harold was a wonderful, caring, loving and giving man, he not only gave monetary but all his love. We will greatly miss him and his talks from the pulpit, his renditions of any story with always a joke. He had a special gift that only God alone gives out. My deepest sympathy for your loss a's well a's ours. God surround you and grant pecs and comfort. Love always, Gloria and Jim Waite

Harold was a remarkable gentleman, an excellent leader in the church and a great neighbor. His church choir was honored to share the special time with our brother in Christian Love on Tuesday evening. The peace that came over his face when he heard "In The Garden" was one we will always remember! Sincere condolences to his family.

Arthur & I are so very sad, as we know you are. Knowing he's home with God, with all his family that's gone before him, and pain free doesn't make it any easier for those he's left behind. I remember as a teenage sitting on the front porch, counting cars waiting for your dad to pick me up after work, when I was going to watch you girls for the night. Plus getting to sleep in that big fancy bed! We loved him and we will miss him. Prayers to all of you in this difficult and sad time.

These are the times it makes it hasrd being so far away. Tina and I send our love and our hugs. You all are in our prayers. RIP Harry
