Harry was an outstanding baseball pitcher with a great fastball/wicked curve combination. I played with him at Colina del Sol for 3 years. His father was a wonderful coach who helped me immeasurably.
I have fond memories of playing baseball with you and of your dad's compassionate coaching.
Harry, you were a real good guy and I want to wish you a peaceful transition into the unknown.
