Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry about your loss. Although Harry has not been able to come to church since his illness, I still miss seeing his sweet smile and kind face. He was so proud of his service to his country, and we are all indebted to him for his sacrifice. He was truly of the Greatest Generation, and it was a pleasure to know him.

Harry always liked to pick at me,and he
called me Mo all the time,so I just called him Larry! He loved to play his guitar,and many times the three of us would make some right nice music--he on his guitar,Wilma on her auto-harp and me on the piano-either at Wilmas'or

Harry was a kind, sentimental, sensitive and loving person. We had such fun with him "back in the day". He was kind to our children; bringing things to them to pique their interest and to stimulate their imagination. We will never forget him.
Our sincere condolences are sent to you, Wilma, and to his family.

Wilma,
So sorry for the lose of your loved one. I know you did your best in so many ways. Seeing your support for Harry in his last few years that I was around to witness, was one that only a few of us wished we could have for our loved ones. I know he meant a lot to you and remembering the dances we had at the Care Center with you and Harry makes my heart melt for you. May God bless you and all his family members for the lose of him. Blessing to you all.

I miss you so much! I love you!

Fran,JJ, And I, would like to send our love to you and your family. we love ya. love kimmie.

Through all the sadness and sorrow at this time, happy memories do thankfully, come into mind. You helped me when I was in the horrible car wreck and was unable to work, thank you. Your Mother had a rough time being a single Mom, and you associated my plight with her. I, NEVER open a jar of peanut butter without thinking of you. You had a way of scraping out the inside of the jar, making your Mother think it was full. You always got a big kick out of telling that. You helped build Grand...
