    I I canâ??t believe I wonâ??t see him with my St Germaine golf league anymore. Always looked forward to seeing him and sharing some laughs before we teed off. He was a really good guy and will be sorely missed

    My deepest condolences to Harry's family. I volunteered with Harry at the Bethel Park AARP Tax help site for the past 3 years. I am so sadden to learn of Harry's passing. He was the driving force of that site and its work, to say he will be missed is an understatement. He was liked and admired by so many people who came to the Bethel Library for tax assistance. Harry was always so positive and a pleasure to work with and be around. I am thankful for the time I got to spend working with Harry.
