    The members of the South Hills Steelers bowling league send our condolences to Harry's family. He was a longtime member who was very competitive even in his later years. Every Tuesday night you could find Harry interacting with league members whether they were young or old. He always had his eye on the scoreboard so he knew exactly how many pins his team needed to win. Harry will be missed. South Hills Steelers Bowling League

    My condolences to Harry's family and friends. Harry was one of the dynamic duo of authors of the SES (Single Entry System) that processed all of USSteel/USX's orders. His partner in coding infamy was Saul Betters. Their intellect and sense of humor were only eclipsed by the volume of code that they wrote. They were the brain trust of USSteel. How do I know this?...I sat in front of Harry and Saul as a young college graduate in 1978, part of a very diverse class of new hires that signaled a new approach in big steel's culture. They shared funny stories and joyful banter...it was a joy to be in their company. Susan Thaner Lammie
