Thank you for your ability to raise a stand-up man. He is doing great things on the field, and even better things off.

Flying proud
On behalf of Seattle's 12th man, our deepest condolences are with Russell and his family on the loss of his father. He is no doubt just as proud of you as we are.

Tammy,
I just found out about Harry's passing. You have my deepest (though belated sympathy). He was a great friend of mine.

Tammy,
I was so sad to hear of Harry's passing. I will be keeping you and your family in my prayers. God bless you during this time of bereavement. Haven't talked to you in years, but I can see you as a beautiful bride, back in 1981, since I had the pleasure of being in your wedding. Thinking fondly of you soror.

Tammy and Family,
I was a classmate of Harry's at UVA Law School. While I did not have the pleasure of knowing him well, Harry was one of the few of us who consistently maintained a smile during those 3 years. It sounds like he carried that wonderful spirit into his life with you - an example that we can all learn from. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Tammy, Ben and the Wilson Family,
If you didn't want to smile, you better not run into Harry! That's the way I will always remember him and I hope you will find solace and happiness in his memory. God bless and be with you and you with him.
