I was saddened to hear of Harry's passing. He was instrumental in teaching our students and staff how to solve conflicts through the Peace Program along with Dr. Nancy. We still use the principles of those lessons today throughout our curriculum. Rest in peace, Harry! From "Mr. Bill" and all of your friends at St. Coletta Day School.
