Janet called yesterday to tell us about Harry. I am so sorry to hear about him. I had talked to Janet within the last two months, and she was telling me he was not doing well. I will let Larry know.
I have been through some of mother's pictures and found some that you or your boys might like to have. I would appreciate if you could send me their correct addresses.
I also did not realize that you were in Greensburg.
Love and prayers for you and your family.
Linda

A Manilla HS class mate of 1955. I most remember Harry as being a very good athlete. We will miss Him at our 60th class reunion next year but will keep him in our memory and prayers. I also remember Harry as one who enjoyed life which was exemplified in his obituary.

I knew Harry at Ford. I also worked in the accounting department. He was
still a young man. I had heard about about some of his sports exploits e.g.
hitting a home run off of "The king and his court".26

I am deeply sorry for the whole family. Jessica Winton is my granddaughter and I know how deeply she loved and cared about her Papaw Winton.
Sharon,Terry, Barry, and Jessica, you have my condolences and prayers. I am just so very sorry.
I will never forget what a great time we had over Thanksgiving one year, when you, Sharon and Harry came over to my house in Palm Bay, FL, and spent the weekend. I believe everyone had a great time and I know Jessica & Vestina really enjoyed it too. These are good memories for Jessica and for all of us. I know I enjoyed having both of you over here that weekend. Again, I am so very sorry.

Sharon, Terry, and Barry. I am so sorry for you loss. I only met Harry one time when you lived in Beech Grove. He seemed like such a nice man. Prayers are with you during this sad time.
