Harry W. Radee Jr.
Harry W. Radee Jr. of Hemet, California entered into eternal light on September 5, 2022 with his daughter by his side, at the age of 94. He was born June 15, 1928 in Michigan. He married his loving wife Rena on June 22, 1946 in Albion, Michigan, until the Lord called her home in 2013. Throughout his life he lived in Michigan until 1968 then moved to Lake Havasu City, Arizona where he worked building the London Bridge. Then he moved to California where he retired and they spent their summers in Michigan and winters in Desert Hot Springs, California. In 1971 they moved to Hemet. Harry loved to play golf with his friends and joined Grandfathers of Golf for the kids, teaching them the game. He was often called "Handsome Harry" and always had a smile on his face. Harry was always quick to crack a joke and always had one for every occasion. Harry will be sincerely missed. He leaves behind his sister Shirley (Elden) Winchell, of Homer, Michigan, daughter Patti ( Richard) Bowman, of Hemet, California, son Craig (Mary) Radee of Lake Havasu City, Arizona and grandson Joseph (Liz) Ray, of Greenville, Texas, along with several nieces and nephews.
Arrangements under the direction of Rose Mortuary of Desert Hot Springs, California. Private interment took place in Albion, Michigan.
