Hi Family and Friends of Grandpa Harry.
I am in Washington while many of you gather for Grandpa's funeral today. Some of my favorite memories of Grandpa were his stories. Each story added life and detail to our memories. Grandpa would tell a story he remembered about someone while in conversation with them. It was a way to reflect on our history together.
I have a few favorites and will share them in future posts as I invite you all to comment with your favorite stories and memories. Grandpa would love to know we were carrying his stories on and sharing them in memory of him now.
My thoughts and prayers are with everyone missing Grandpa and mourning his loss. It is my hope that this place to share and reflect will help you all through the process and keep Grandpa's stories flowing for many years to come. Let's not allow the miles between us to cause us to lose sight of what memories we share.

Great idea, Susy! I've written two very long postings tonight and have accidentally deleted both of them! I've been trying to figure things out and think I've got it all figured out and then wham-o, I mess up! Anyway, I'll make this short...I'm tired of writing. Grandpa-what a great guy! We loved him and he loved us. He always had a twinkle in his eye and had a good sense of humor. Mixed in with working hard physically, he was a thinker, too. He was quite a "people person". He saw lots of changes in his life. He thought cell phones were cool. When he told stories, you could see that in his mind's eye, he clearly saw everything he was talking about. We'll miss him.
Deb and family
