Harry L. Kagan

Mary Lyn and family, you are certainly in my heart and prayers. I worked for and with Harry for almost forty years, most of that time while we both worked for the California Department of Transportation and in recent years while Harry worked as a consultant. He was, and will always be remembered as the consummate right of way agent. Harry's many contributions to the profession and the Department will carry on as a fitting legacy.

We believe that we are fortune to have known Harry as a friend. We shall always remember his wit, kindness, and tolerance to our not so conventional views to current affairs. The memory of our Chinese dinner gatherings is a testimony of his long lasting impact in our lives.

We extend our heartfelt sympathy to you for the loss of Mr. Kagan (which is how he was known to me)--My dad, Frank Lentz, held him in very high regard over their many years at Caltrans. The two of them are undoubtedly engaged in a spirited (and humor-filled) discussion in heaven about the ways of the world.

Harry was a very special person
that was very kind to us and most
helpful during my years in Right
of Way. We shall never forget him
and the good times we had. We want
to extend our sympathy to his family
at this difficult time.

During my 41 years as a Right of Way Agent I had many bosses but have always said that Harry was "the Greatest boss I ever had" - we shared a lot of good and bad times in the 14 years I was his Asst. Chief R/W Agent. Mary Lyn his love for you was always evident.

May GOD touch the sorrowful hearts of those who grieve Harry's passing. Harry will continue to live in our hearts and our memories forever. Take comfort in knowing he is still with us in so many ways. I pray for the family as you go through this difficult time. God Bless You.

Mary Lyn, it goes without saying that Harry's passing will leave an enormous void in your life. If Harry made the same impact on everyone he ever met, as he made on my family and me, then he has left a huge void in many, many, lives. He will be missed by all of us. God bless you.

Mary Lyn & Family,

I am sad that Harry has passed but happy he is no longer in pain. I am blessed to have Tina as a sister in law and glad that I met the entire family. Harry was a funny, generous and classy man. Mom will enjoy having his company in heaven. Stay strong and know that you have a lot of people in Texas thinking about you.

Harry was a great guy and a true professional. I loved working with him and considered him a mentor in management and interpersonal skills. He was one-of a-kind and we will certainly miss his always smiling face and kind words.
