Harry was a childhood friend of mine, and a long-time friend of my family. His funeral services were always offered with great dignity and tenderness. The world is a poorer place without him.

Pat I'm saddened to learn of you
And the family lost
But know that the Lord is w/you
All. And he will be with you all the way just remember to be absent
From the body is to be present
With the Lord!!
