Great Uncle Harry was the last of my grandmother's (Kate Huffstutler) remarkable generation and was an equally remarkable man. My thoughts and prayers are with all the Weicherts.

Harry was a regular visitor to my grandmother Huffstutler's porch, the social center of our large family. He was a great story teller. I will enjoy seeing him again when the saints are gathered home.

Dear Weichert Family,
Uncle Harry was a joy in our lives as my husband and I worshipped together with him at the Covenant Church.
