HARRY D. CASTLE

Just stopping by three days and a year later to leave a handful of virtual flowers. Harry, I think about you almost every day. God rest ye!

I am so sorry to hear about Harry's passing. So many of my happy college memories involve him and his music. I'm deeply sorry for your loss.

I have just so sadly learned of Harry's passing, and that he'd been sick. I remember him as a vibrant Cornell student who I'd met during a year of music theory and whose friendship really helped as I struggled with those difficult homework assignments. Outside of class, he shared new musical interests with such infectious enthusiasm that I gave multiple listens to artists I might otherwise have skipped! I regret that we lost touch, though I have often thought of him over the years,...

I just learned of Harry's passing and
I am deeply saddened. While we had lost touch over the past few years I have always had the fondest place in my heart for Harry. We were college classmates, housemates, and musical bandmates and I will always remember our times together as some of the happiest of my life. Harry was plain and simply and excellent fellow and I will miss him dearly.

I just heard of Harry's passing. We were roommates for three years at Cornell and close friends for many years. I have very fond memories of the road trips that Harry and I took when we drove from Ithaca to Dekalb for Thanksgiving and the great times we had in Chicago, New York City, and of course all our time at Cornell...From studying to happy hour, Harry was just great to be around. He was simply a great guy with a real sense of humor, a passion for music, and a true friend. He was a...

I just learned of Harry's passing through the Cornell Alumni News and am extremely saddened. Harry and I were housemates for 2 years in college, and I have often regretted losing touch. Amongst our friends, Harry was always considered the most talented, brightest , yet most down to earth. We loved his company and companionship. Many of my best memories of college life involve Harry - swimming with a group in the gorges late at night, watching sunsets from the hill, or just listening to...

This is the saddest of news. Harry had such a kind heart and even larger joy of life. Spent alot of time with Harry and friends during the Northern days. May he rest in peace. Peace to the Castle family as well.

We just heard Saturday from Harry's mother.

Harry and Janet had worked closely together as a duo, even putting a CD out together, but sadly we'd lost touch over the last few years.

Harry was a brilliant musician, but more than that, he was a sweet man who would always make you smile. We listened to some of his work yesterday and were struck by his sense of fun and whimsy. It was so Harry-ish; those who knew him know what we mean.

That's what we'll always...

Dear John, Nancy and Family:
I just read of Harry's passing in the NIU Alumni Magazine ... I'm so very sorry for your loss. I remember him coming quietly into First National Bank on occasion, and John talking proudly about his very original music. I hope you'll take comfort in your memories and what he inspired. Very best regards,
