I liked Harry very much -as a friend and classmate, He (and his brothers) was one of the most quiet and unpretentious guys I ever knew. In Grade School (Wanpsville Elementary), He always amazed us that he finished his Math tests before the rest of us were hardly started. I thought he long ago removed to Sandy Creek (NY).

I am very sad and sorry to hear about Harry, I always thought that he had kind eyes and a gentle soul.

I do recall Harry as a quiet steady presence. I did not know he missed graduation by one month at 17 years. What a dedicated family farming life he must have worked to sustain. Sadly, too late what an interesting reflection he might have conveyed of his life experience to that of many of us.

Harry and I grew up together - our Dads were best friends.  So sorry.
