  1. Harry was an awesome neighbor. He helped everyone, snowblowing driveways, giving food from his garden,or a friendly conversation. We will miss him, God grant him eternal rest. The Solaks

  2. Sorry to hear about Harry's passing. I lived next to Harry for over 10 years. Harry was always helping us take down a tree in the side yard. Always liked his train set that he put up at Christmas. Praying that the family will find comfort and peace. Sincerely. Bob Ladygo
