We still MISS YOU, Harry . . . first as my childhood next-door neighbor in West Allis, and then, a delightful surprise when you and Nancy joined our beloved First Congregational Church of Wauwatosa. You remain: a GEM in the hearts and minds of countless friends and, I suspect just as warmly, your clients.

Harry was a wonderful and valued friend from childhood on; he lived next door to us when we moved to West Allis from Chicago, and our warm friendship continued when we moved to Wauwatosa and on throughout his life, then continued as a wonderful surprise when he and Nancy joined our First Congregational Church in Wauwatosa.

Harry was a dear and valued friend from our next-door-neighbor friendship when I was 6 & he was 7, on throughout our lives. We were delighted when he & family, moving to Wauwatosa, joined our First Congregational Church. What a GEM he was, and will remain, in my memory and in the minds of the many who were his friends, relatives & colleagues. We miss you, Harry!!!!!!

Harry and I are second cousins. Separated by distance over most of our lives, our paths directly crossed only occasionally. But after my mother was widowed, Harry and Nancy were a great comfort to her. Harry was the last surviving relative from her paternal family. For the attention and kindness that Harry and Nancy extended to our mother, my sister, Ellen, and I extend our great appreciation and condolences to their children.

Harry was a great guy committed to his family, the law and his God. He was quick to offer his help, always genial and humble. He, Nancy and I would enjoy a meal together at a favorite New England restaurant when they were visiting the Boston family. We served together on the church's national board and I witnessed Harry' faith and commitment. commitment. I am sorry for your loss but smile to imagine Harry and Nancy reunited.

Thinking fondly of both Harry and Nancy. They were so welcoming when I first started attending First Congregational Church. And tried to engage our boys when they saw them with us in the pews and coffee hours. My sympathies to all their loved ones.

I remember Mr. Holz very fondly from my days at Q&B, particularly when he had his "corner office". He was always so nice, kind and polite to everyone. I am certain that our loss is Heaven's gain.
