Memories and Condolences
for Eon-Paul Harry

Not sure what to say?





Abigail Harry

Yesterday

Daddy, I wish I could tell you about everything. I wish my babies could meet their Grandpa. I wish I could wrap my arms around you and just be your little girl again. Caleb and I tell each other all the time that you would be so proud of who we've become. I cherish the memories I had with you and I love telling my babies about their Grandpa Eon and how much you loved us and would've loved being in their lives. It's been almost 19 years but it feels like yesterday that you were taking me on an Arby's date and holding my hand. I love you forever, Daddy.

Something told me for the longest time to search his name. Today I did and I had a feeling he did pass away....you use to carry my books when we walked to the Greenhalge Elementary. We use to go play at MacPherson park. It was pouring out one day so we hid under a slide to stay dry. We were only in the fourth grade. You were such a gentleman as a kid and respectful at such a young age. I was so cold that day and you wrapped your arms around me to keep me warm. We shared our first kiss that day. That memory still present and even though the park is different that memory still is clear as day.

My condolences go out to his family and friends. Glad to find out he grew up to be an upstanding man. Thank you for your service and being my childhood friend that always made me feel wanted and loved!
R.I.P Eon-Paul Harry....you are never forgotten by me.

I met Harry in March, 2007 during deployment. We flew one mission together. His great personality and can do attitude made an everlasting impression on me. It is hard to find people of his caliber in today's world. My deepest sympathy for the family he loved so much.

TSgt Harry was a true professional in every dealing I had with him. Keeping track of all his trips was tedious, but he put as much effort into keeping the books straight as he did fixing his jet. He will be tough to replace.

I can say that "Harry" has made an impact on my life. I will do my very best to live up the the high standards that he has set. We ask ourselves why he was called home after only a short time on Earth and the answer I keep coming up with is that he "got it right". My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Especially, Wendy and those precious children. I will rest easy knowing he is watching over us. Thank you Harry.
