So sorry to hear of Harry's death. Harry lived next door to us at Pine Lake.
Harry was always my cousin. He was 14 years older than me but he did his best to entertain me when we were visiting with uncle Joe and aunt Mary at their home in Red Deer. He taught me how to play crib and would show me over and over how to count the cards correctly. I will miss him. Donna Sansom
