To Kiki and family,
The first leg I flew with Harry, he scared me to death. On the second leg I caught the twinkle in his eye and figured him out. What a great guy...he will be missed by all.

Harry was one of my favorite people. I loved fishing with him down at the "TAJ" and at the "Shell Beach Literary Society". He had a 'unique' outlook on life and I will miss him dearly.

Dear Kiki, Katie and Fritz (who we never had the pleasure of meeting). We are deeply saddened about the loss of Harry. Harry was truly one of the good guys and the salt of the earth. We Northerner's found it so easy to fall for his Southern charm, devilish grin and sharp wit, but most of all his genuine devotion to his family and friends. We love you Harry and God Speed!

Every time Harry and I met he would call me "Herr UUHlken". Though that wasn't the way to pronounce my name it was always a pleasure to see Harry. He was a mensch! A salute to your memory, Herr Koch!
