I am so sorry to hear about Harry. It has been a lot of years since I have talked to anyone, but if you remember, I worked for Doug and Mary from 1985 until 1994. I am shocked and very sorry for your loss.

Harry was a good guy. Enjoyed working with him on the Whole Foods projects. He did two of them for me. Condolences to his family. He was very proud of his son playing football and shared that with me often. I know he will be missed.

You left me way to soon, for reasons I will never understand. They say when it rains someone made it to heaven, no accidents you went out with a hurricane ( typical Harry). Until I see you again I will be jealous of the angels and I look forward to seeing the polished floors in heaven. In the meantime derrick has signed up for the six am face time chats on my way to work... I love you daddy...Ally

Words cannot express how sorry I am for the tragic loss of my first cousin Harry to his family and friends. Although we are across the country from each other we were reunited at our Grandmother's funeral a few years back. Please know that I will be there in spirit and prayer during this horrible time.
With love,
