Not sure what to say?

Margie and family please accept our very belated sympathies. We remember Harry most fondly and do wish you the very best. It was over 50 years ago in Indianapolis, Indiana and we were employed by Cargill, Inc., a firm for which I worked for 40 years. I'm not sure they come any better.

Bill and I so enjoyed getting to know Harry in Dunbar and know he will be missed by all. Saddened to learn of his passing.

Margie and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Be comforted by the knowledge that Harry is in the company of our Lord.

Dear Margie, I was indeed saddened to learn of Harry's passing. Unlike my friendship with other 1955 classmates, I really got to know Harry only after we graduated, and that simply means that it was his fine qualities -- not just being tossed in the same class basket -- that impressed me and made him such a rewarding friend.

My family and I extend our most sincere sympathies to the Ambrose family for their loss. Harry was a good man, Godspeed Harry T. Ambrose.

I had known Harry from our earliest days as freshmen classmates together in 1951, and reveled in being with him again at reunions such as the one he and Margie sponsored for us in Williamsburg. His strength of character was exemplary whether it was concern for others or in facing the disease that took him. He was an honored member of his community and our class.

I had the privilege of working with Harry for a few short years in Chicago. He was always willing share share the wisdom he had gained over the years with anyone. Many fond memories...

Dear Margie, Julie, Colín and Beckie. My deepest condolences for the loss of Harry, or Mr. Ambrose how I used to call him. I will never forget the summer I spent with all of you back in the 70's when I met you for the first time. I enjoyed so much talking with Mr. Ambrose about politics, the economy and Mexico - US relations. Mr. Ambrose was an example to follow in all aspects of life. With my warmest regards. Jorge

Dear Colin and the Ambrose Family,
I'm so sorry to learn about the loss of your Dad. Harry was a huge influence in my life and I am a better person for having known him. I have many vivid and fond memories of time spent with your Dad.

Your loss saddens me immensely but my sadness is tempered with the knowledge that Harry lived a full and meaningful life. He leaves an amazing legacy.

My sincerest condolences to your family.
