Dearest Dad--"For all the Saints, who from their labors rest." Your legacy lives on!! I remember so many things. The wonderful anniversaries and family reunion occasions, your limericks and "pearls of wisdom", your unconditional love, the smell of your cigars and pipes, "The pack is back", The Crappies, those dumb Buncos, "Big Bucks", "The old Maj", just to name a few things. I love to sing to your great-grandchildren!! Especially, the song "Dance with the Dolly with the Hole in her Stocking." Mom said you enjoyed singing that song to us when we were little. Dad, you are always close in my thoughts and in my heart.

The best Dad a girl could have ever wished for! Your life lessons and love for life live on in the legacy you created all 86 years of your life! To an honorable and treasured man, husband, father, grandpa, and great-grandpa - your memories are priceless!
Your youngest girl,
Lori

Granpa, I can't believe it has been five years since the last time I saw you. We love you and were always an important role model to me. I know Heaven is a much better place for you, Love Always!

Grandpa, you are with us in our hearts every single day. I often have a smoke from your pipe and pour a "Harries Special" in your honor. Your limericks and nick names will live on forever. We love you and miss you so much.

I can not believe that five years ago we lost one of the best men I know - Grandpa. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about you. I know you are keeping watch over us all. I love you and I miss you!
