Mr. Arenburg,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice-first for our Country when you served with the U.S. Naval Construction Battalions during WW II and secondly for the citizens of Massachusetts when you served with the DOC. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Harris had the best Irish brogue of any
non Irishman. Always ready to help anyone, he enjoyed a good laugh. We have many pleasant memories of Harris.
We hope those happy memories help you
in this time of sorrow. With deep
sympathy. Vinnie and Sheila
