Harry was a very good friend and I will miss him a greatly. I know he is in heaven.

I knew Harry as my lawyer and a kind gentleman - wife Margaret went to St. Patrick's same time I was there - lovely person whom I also knew as an adult . Talked with Harry at St. Mary's Church a short while back at a service and reception there. He will be missed. My condolences to the family. Anne Alexander

We were blessed to know Harry & his family. His faith was infectious. Our thoughts & prayers are with his family. May he rest in peace. Alex & Donna George

I did not know Mr. Shaia, but I work with Mary Shaia on the Henrico Christmas Mother Council and she exhibits the Christian thoughts and ideals that her father-in-law valued.

May God bless and comfort you and your family Shaia. May the many pleasant memories keep Harry close to our hearts. With great respect and affection, Dr. Ed and Mrs. Jill Zakaib
