Harry was raised in upstate New York, but when the war broke out he made the decision to serve his country. That took him to Waco, Texas, where he met the woman of his dreams, a farmer’s daughter. The two fell in love and were married 6 months later. They lived in peace and joy and were the model of a loving family. While stationed in California, Virginia and Harry adopted a baby girl, Traci, and soon after Harry retired and they returned to Waco, where they lived among friends and family for 25 years.
In the early 1990s Harry and Virginia retired and moved to San Antonio, where they began bowling and enjoying their new life.
Harry was always the jokester and loved to make people smile. He had a tender heart and a joyful spirit. He was loved by all and served his friends and family with all his heart and soul.
