Harry Martin Obituary
Harry was born and raised in Washington, DC, attended Beauvoir Elementary School and St. Albans School, graduating in l997. He attended Dickinson College, graduated from George Washington University, and received a Masters Degree from Trinity Washington University in Mental Health Counseling. Harry worked as a therapist in Washington, DC, until his death.
Harry's life was filled with friends and family, fun and uproarious laughter. He was passionate about music, motorcycles, physical fitness, philosophy, educational podcasts, his dog Zuzu, and spending time with people he loved, particularly in the Northern Neck of Virginia. His deep empathy was evident in his ability to connect with people on a human level. Remembered by many as the funniest person they'd ever met, he had a unique charm that will never be forgotten.
In honor of Harry's life, a memorial service will be held at St. John's Church, Lafayette Square, on October 19 at 11 a.m. Charitable donations may be made in his honor to Pathways to Housing DC at www.pathways- dc.org.
