Condolences to Harry's family. We have all lost a good guy. We worked adjacent squad areas for many years he was one of kindest most understanding, honorable police officers that
I have ever known. Everyone that knew Harry loved him. He
was always a happy, positive, smiling and honest officer. He will always be remembered for his goodness, kindness and
smile. We lost one of our best! Bob Staffaroni

Harry served as my training officer when I first joined the Wauwatosa Police Department in 1969 and taught me many things. I remember Harry was a great cop with an outstanding sense of humor and smile. Always positive and always willing to go the extra mile for anyone.
