Harry was my dad. I loved him and admired him deeply. I knew no fear as a child and was always given the freedom to try my wings

within the context of what was morally right. He was smart, dedicated, unselfish, and honest to the core. One correction to his notice - he served in the third army fifth infantry division and one addition - he is survived by two brothers: Norman Dahlstrom of Venice, FL and Irving Dahlstrom of Farmington, CT.
