Harry was a good man. I enjoyed being around him. My condolences.

My SINCERE SYMPATHIES to the Crytzer Family! Harry was a cornerstone of Freeport Athletics for MANY years! His uncanny ability to bring out the very best in someone was remarkable! I ALWAYS will remember chatting with him after officiating or umpiring games, picking up tips for improvement and respecting his option. Harry was a true friend! RIP

So sorry for your loss. God Bless your family at this most difficult time. With sympathy, Deborah (Bish) and Alan Burke, Tracey (Bish) DeStefano and Eleanor (Bish) Shoemaker.

I am so sorry for your loss. My dad, Bud Carson, considered Harry to be his best friend in the world. I imagine they have a lot to catch up on.

My deepest condolences to the Crytzer family. You could always spot Harry in his convertible or at any Freeport sporting event. I missed out on him when I played Legion Baseball - Sonny Westerman and Bud Carrier had taken over - but he somehow always knew who I was. He had time to converse at basketball games, football games. I'm honored to have known him.

To the Crytzer family from the Greiner family, our deepest sympathy. I recall, as a young apprentice, Harry saying "you owe your employer a fair days work for a fair days pay, but your allegiance belongs to Local 12". This, among many other words of advice inspired me in my career and life. Rest in peace Harry and Sis.

Dan and family, I am so very sorry for your losses. I never met your mother, but I knew your father as a wonderful friend and mentor. Harry was always available to me for help and advice when I needed it. Learning from him has made me a better person and he left me in better shape than when he found me.

Sincere condolences on your loss
