him over the last 10 years, and will miss his weekly phone calls it was always nice to hear his voice and he always asked about my family, his passing will be felt by all who knew him
Love, Sheila and Joe

To: Marty & Marlene,
I am truly sorry for your loss! (my loss as well). Just as Janet so beautifully stated..."he was a good man who always asked about our children." I too will always remember his sense of humor and his rides to school just so I didn't have to walk in the cold. I always thought of your dad as the "successful brother." In Harry's own way, he showed me that hard work and dedication can better one's life. The sad thing is I never told him (and I'm certain he had no idea)that he had such an effect on me. I am truly sorry we were unable to travel up to spend time with you at this time. On behalf of my wife Karen, and our children Lauren & Michael....we are truly sorry for your loss.

Marlene,
I tried calling you in Randolph to see how you are but the phone keeps ringing and ringing, and you don't have an answering machine.
I would like to bring some old family photos of Harry, Marty & you with me on Sunday at 4pm when we come to Young Israel.
Is this all right with you if I bring along the old family photos?

Marlene, Marty & Bernie,
I will forever be grateful to my uncle Harry for his thoughtfulness, sense of humor,generosity and his "mensch"like qualities,as my brother Alan has already noted in the online Guest
Book. Harry was a pious man who was extremely devoted to his family,Judaism, his synagogue (his shul)and helping people in need. He cared about people--family, colleagues, friends and even strangers.
Harry always remembered and acknowledged my children's birthdays and other special occasions. Harry knew that our daughter, Becka is autistic. Every year,he sent Becka a personal birthday card and gave her a birthday check so we could purchase clothing and other essential items for Becka over two decades. Harry did the same for our son, Jonathan. Harry always asked "How are Rebecca and Jonathan doing?"
One of my earliest and fondest childhood memories of my uncle Harry is:
Uncle Harry would pick Alan and I up in his 1950s green dodge and along with his own family/the
whole mishpacha (Please forgive my spelling.)Marlene, Marty, Marion plus grandma Glazer and Mrs Becker (as he referred to his mother-in-law)to take us all for an all day outing at the beach--usually Nantasket beach. I'm still amazed how he could fit all of us in his dodge. Inviting my brother and I along with his family to the beach was so thoughtful of him because our parents didn't own a car and if Harry didn't take us to the beach during the dog days of summer, then my brother and I would have been stuck in urban Dorchester without ever experiencing the carefree childhood summers at the beach--pleasures that most children get to indulge in.
Another fond memory of Harry was also in childhood when Harry invited us on a cruise to Provincetown with a group of people from the Hebrew Rehabilitation Center.
I believe Harry also invited us along with him to a shul in Dorchester, MA to celebrate several traditional Jewish holidays.
I will cherish these fond memories of Harry and I will cherish all of the special childhood nicknames he called me when I was a young girl.

Harry was truly a 'mensch'! He always remembered and asked about Jonathan and Rebecca, and for that Janet and I are truly greatful. We will miss him.

your dad. I have many fond memories (and then some) of my first boss at NESH. He gave me a chance and 33 yrs later I'm still here. Take care of yourself.. DebbieTankerley
