Dear Betty and Family.
So very sorry to hear of Harry passing. He was such a wealth of knowledge. I always asked his opinion on many things, especially plants. He was an avid gardener.
He also always asked about Glen. He was such a thoughtful man. I know we all will miss him. You are in my prayers.

Dave,
Your Dad will always be with you – in lessons he gave, the life he shared and the love he showed.
May all your memories of him comfort and bring you peace in time.
Harry was a respected leader for United, I’m sure everyone who worked for and with him would agree !
I’m sorry I couldn’t attend today – my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Harry was one of my many favorites at StM. A faithful servant and godly man.
