Dear Harry, I just looked your name up and learned of your passing. So sorry. You were my mom Ruth Sala (Glattly) cousin. My mom passed in 2018 and I was just thinking about you. So sorry again. Hoping your son, Harry, is doing well.

I worked with Harry at the GWB, my first position in the Port Authority NY NJ. Harry was great!! He made coming to work each day a joy. He had a wonderful personality and was a really nice supervisor, one of my very favorites. When something funny happened I remember he had this laugh that was distinctively his. So very sad to hear of his passing but, I know he led a fulfilling and rewarding life. Sincere condolences to his family.

To the Fischer family:
Our deepest sympathies on the passing of Harry. May GOD's tender mercies be with you at this time.
Harry was one of my PA. deer hunting buddies and we spoke about those times around Thanksgiving time each year. Also about "Lucky Dill" sandwiches. As we both gave up hunting many years ago we still had our memories.
He often told me about Harry Jr. and his work and duties as an Elk.
I will miss him always. Love to you all.
