Harry F. Larkin, Jr., 59, of Center Township, passed away unexpectedly at his home on May 11, 2020.
He was born in April 15, 1961, in Rome, New York, and is the son of Harry F. Larkin, Sr. and Eileen Larkin.
Harry was member of St. Frances Cabrini Church, Holy Name Society and The Knights of Columbus.
He was employed with Grinnell Mutual Reinsurance as a sales manager.
Harry took great pride in his children's activities. When his son Jimmy was younger, Harry coached his little league baseball team. His guidance in sports extended to Harry devoting many years in softball with his daughter Natalie. Harry coached the girls' softball team for many years. He served as president of the Softball Booster Club, managed the Rec Softball League and coached the Pittsburgh Lady Bulldogs. His unwavering dedication to assist with his children's activities always remained constant.
In addition to the love and time he furnished his family with, Harry had a passion for fitness especially lifting weights and listening to his 1970's music. He also relished the time he spent feeding birds.
