It has been a year already and every time I see your picture it puts a smile on my face. The same smile on your face when you came into T & T Hardware store years ago. I still have the train toy box you made for me when I was a little boy. And I will treasure it always. My Dad who you went to school with will be with you shortly and you both can hang out together again. Thanks for the memory's as you are surely missed by me and many others.

I first met Harry the first year I worked for the Department of Agriculture in the amusement ride section in 2005 at a safety seminar.
Harry was always the nicest man and whenever he called into the office he always asked how my day was going and always talked about his family.
Like Harry & his family, I am very religious and I know he is watching over all of his family.
My prayers are with Harry and his family whom he left behind to carry on.
Stay strong, remember all the good times and most of all remember his love for you all.
You will truly be missed.
God Bless you.

In remembrance of a man loved by everyone he met and who taught us about pride and hard work. He raised a family with those same values who continue the legacy of the family business. He will be missed by many and remembered for his love and kindness.

Nancy and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss and pray for Harry's rest and your peace. It is fifty years since I met Harry and all of you at St. George's Carnival and later at St. Anne's. Harry and all of you were an inspiration of faith, family and hard work. Through those efforts he helped keep many a school open and parishes in the black. God reward him and bless all of you in your grief. Love and prayers.

A man so loved by all who met him and taught us all what hard work and pride is all about. Harry raised fine children who have so much pride in their family and continue to take pride in their family business. Love and Prayers to all the family, friends and acquaintances who will miss this wonderful man.

To the Reinhart Family.....
Harry was a role model to so many of us in our younger years as we worked with him and the family year in, and year out with our fund raising event. He exemplified the essence of what it meant to be a true friend and mentor. He continually put his family, his faith, and the community ahead of himself, giving us an example of what we could all strive to be as we grew up. He will leave a void in the hearts of so many of us who came to know, respect, and love him through the years. May God bless and comfort all of you during this difficult time. Know that there is a special seat for him outside the trailer door where he is seated, watching over us all............

Harry did so much for so many but his greatest gift has been instilling a work ethic in his children and grandchildren.....His legacy will live on for everyone through his children.
His passion helped so many parishes out through all his years. Was proud to get to know him at Our Lady of Grace and all so many festivals. His show will go on! Love all of you!
