Not sure what to say?

I am writing to you my family, and my brother Harry, whom I have called Chip, my whole life. It has been almost one year since you passed away and left us all here on earth with an emptiness that no one will ever be able to fill. You were my only brother and such a good one. Being so much older than me, you were my hero when I was a little girl.
I remember when Chip left to join the Navy. I was five. We went to NYC to see a Yankee game and then dropped him off and drove home. Everyone...

This is what I remember,
Caelyn and I would go to the grocery store shopping with Uncle Harry.
He(Uncle Harry) would teach us how to spell long words,he would watch us go swimming and wouldn't let us get hurt.
He would let us watch t.v when we were spose(suppose)to be reading.
He would help us with homework,if we didn't know how to spell a word on our homework.
We would always give Uncle Harry a hug and a kiss for helping.
Uncle Harr was always in a...

Dear Ewing family and Friends, I have numerous fond memories of Uncle Harry. He had a passion for family, kids, and baseball. We are very blessed that Uncle Harry was in our lives and more importantly my children's lives. He was kind enough to go down to VA with the kids and I to pick up our little fluff ball - Maddie. On the way to VA we drove down 11/15 and he had some pretty interesting tales to tell! It was a really nice drive and a moment in time I will always treasure. Through the years...

I could remember the last few months with poppi like it was yesterday... When Jason and I lived in Shiremanstown, it was like a sign from god when our basement walls caved in. It was like god wanted Jason to reunite with his father and I am glad that Jason got to spend those specials moments with his father. I think we all did. I remember when Jason would stay up with poppi every night. I would just get a kick out of watching the both of them eating there bowl of cereal and Jason helping...

Dear Harr,
I miss you so very much.I knew in my heart that I would be loosing you to cancer,but I never in a heart beat would have thought that when we went to the hospital this time that I wouldn't be bringing you home.I had myself prepard to bring you home and to care for you for however long.It wouldn't have mattered,and I know that sounds selfish to some people,but at least I had him here with me where I could talk with him,hold his hand,and to hug each other when we cried.

I will miss my Uncle Har deeply, but will always keep those fond memories of him and my frequent visits to the restaurant deep in my heart. I've been told that when Aunt Dot and Uncle Har knew I was coming, they knew to "put on the bacon" because my mischeivious little hands would always end up stealing the bacon. Oh, but it didn't stop there. After they decided to open the daycare, my mom could always rely on Uncle Har to pick me up from school when I was "sick" :). (Yeah right - sick of...

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I remember the days of hanging at the WF Corner Store when I was a little girl. Harry was a very nice man that will be sadly missed. My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

Just a short month ago I hugged Chip goodbye when I left his house in Enola. We were celebrating his 67th birthday. I put my arms around him and his bones felt thin and frail and I feared that I might not see him again. He placidly lived his life accepting almost everything around him and even when he faced death he approached it with equanamity.
What can you do? he said when I asked how he felt.
He lived a lucky life, being surrounded by a warm and busy family always supporting...
