Hi, Cheryl. I'm sad to hear about Harry's death. You may remember me from Metairie Ridge Presbyterian Church. I'm 5'1" and had red hair (no longer red!). May God send you and the rest of the family those who know how to "weep with those who weep" (Romans 12:15) as often and for as long as you need them.

Cheryl, so sorry I could not attend the service for Harry. My last visit with him at the hospital was a very special one, he made peace with so many things in his life. He was truly a man of passion who cared deeply for his friends and his family. He will be missed by all of us at Metairie Ridge Presbyterian Church. It comforts me to know that he is now with the Lord. .
Condolences,
Karen Easker Eigenbrod

I extend the hand of sympathy to the boys on the passing of Harry. He was an active member of Metairie Ridge PC, and a hard working one!If anything mechanical or carpentry or construction/repair needed to be done at Metairie Ridge, and I mean anything, Harry was the "go to" guy.I rarely saw Harry without his signature baseball cap on; and he respected all persons with whom he came in contact. Harry always had his own opinion about life and its realities; I had many hours of dialogue with him over the years, and I will cherish those memories forever. Godspeed my friend. Rest in peace.
