Harry Frank PORTER

I am sorry to just learn of Harry´s passing. I worked with him and other Carrascolendas cast as well as humorist John Henry Faulk in the musical Celebration! In Austin, Texas in 1973. We had a great run with full house SRO most nights. He was a kind, warm talented intellectual with a great heart. I am privileged to have known him. Laurie Coker ( Laurie Lynn when I knew Harry)

Today is the 19th of March 2019 and I just realized that my friend Harry (El Gerente) had passed away. I met Harry when I lived in Mexico City between 2006 and 2012. I had contacted him to translate a few articles for the companies internal magazine. I still remember the first time I met him I recognized him as "El Gerente" in the Mexican movie "7 Días". We became friends and met later also his wife Myriam. Unfortunately we lost each other out of site when I moved away from Mexico. Rest in...

Harry and I met at Ole Miss...he was a great guy..
I would love to,share my memories of him with his family.

I watched Carrascolendas as a teenager and learned to speak some Spanish. I remember the show fondly.Rest in peace, Agapito. Vaya con Dios.

I never had the honor of meeting Mr. Porter but I remember him fondly. As a kid I used to watch Carrascolendas and enjoyed watching him perform as Agapito the Lion. As a matter of fact he is the only character that I remember. My first language was Spanish so I learned from his show. It was so long ago that I watched it but I have never forgotten that Spanish speaking gringo in that tiger costume(LOL). I was intrigued by this white guy speaking perfect, and I mean perfect Spanish!. I remember...

My life is better for having known Harry and witnessed some of his many lives. I always admired his alegría de vivir.
