June and Family....Fred and I were so sorry to learn of Harry's death. He is a very special person and I could always count on seeing him up in the balcony at Mass. We'll also miss seeing him driving by on his way to town. Please know that he will be in our prayers and do let me know if I can do anything to help you plan his Memorial Service.
