Harry grew up and lived in the Harriston area. He was a hardworking man who spent a lot of his time outdoors working on the farm and with his construction business. He loved fixing and operating his machinery and other items and could often be found in his shop.

He was kind, friendly, caring, helpful and had a great sense of humor. He was well respected and fondly remembered by many and always happy to lend a helping hand. Church, his faith, family, friends, and neighbors were very important to him.

He liked to take photos and videos and enjoyed looking at them regularly. He collected old machinery and engines and proudly showed them to his family. He also loved to listen to his old records, tapes and CDs and watch videos, and especially enjoyed hymns, southern gospel, and country and western music.
