Not sure what to say?

To the many 4th gear jumps into the little league field, the Sunday go cart races, the dirt bike trips to the power lines, all the trips to the tracks!!!, the crab bushel dynamite jumps can´t stop laughing. Tge many three stooges impersonations. I jumping over the headgear in my back yard. I miss you brother from a different mother!!!

He was on a flight that had just been deiced due to a snow storm. As he was doing a final seatbelt check, he glanced out the window to see the wings still covered with ice. Always the diligent man that he was, he raced to the cockpit, banging on the door, screaming "don't take off". They heeded, and he most likely saved everyone's lives. Turns out that the deicing crew used the wrong fluid to deice the aircraft. That's Harry. Always aware!

Harry was my roommate in Boston when we were first hired with Allegheny Airlines. We were sitting around in our apartment, bored, and he said "what do you want to do, I'm bored". I said, how about going skiing? We looked for any available seats on the airlines and found the Banff flights wide open. Next morning we were off to Banff. The ski picture is him pretending to crash into the tree. The other two are at my house in NH for a halloween party. I'm on the left. Great times. He's dearly...

Harry will be deeply missed. Our sincere condolences to his family and many friends..

RIP Harry, I will always remember the late nights, sticks of dynamite under the crab baskets, crazy drives, 4th gear jumps on the 125 over the little league field, Lots of music!!! and how funny you always were. RIP Harry I will miss you!!!

I'm so saddened to hear about Harry. I remember visiting with him, long after we'd left Severna Gardens, in front of the DiMartini's and the pride he demonstrated for his gorgeous SAAB. He always was and is unforgettable! RIP Harry, and condolences to Mrs. Rew and Amanda.

I am devastated to hear this sad news. We grew up together and my memories of Harry are countless. Rest in peace, dear friend.

We have known Harry since boyhood. As he grew to an adult, he never changed;
remaining an enthusiastic, energetic,
funny person, full of ideas. His life was too short. Our hearts and sympathy
go out to Ethel Mae and Amanda.

Our thoughts and prayers to Ethel and your family.love Laura Roe McMullen
