Harry was a star athlete and heartthrob with a kind soul, a mischievous grin and a heart of gold. He was a big presence at WHS and despite the health challenges he had faced recently, he was determined to attend our 2025 reunion and reconnect with old friends! RIP Herc.

I saw Harry at our reunion last year, and I could see how hard it was for him to attend. But also how much he wanted to be there.
I never really knew Harry but I am saddened to learn of his passing especially since I feel like I just saw him only a year ago.
RIP Harry.

Harry truly was an old soul with a heart of gold. It was wonderful having him at our high school reunion last year as he was such an important part of all our lives growing up. While we didn't stay in touch enough between our high school gatherings, he was never far from my thoughts...and will always be.
Thank you Linda for letting us know and I would be honoured to be part of any celebration of his life. I will keep my eyes posted for further news of an event in his honour.
With warm memories of my sweet friend Harry.

I too spoke with Harry at the WHS reunion last summer... I saw him at the bar standing all alone....
I walked up to him and he looked in the eyes and I said out loudl "HEY... HARRY! (just like we all did back in the day at WHS!) You should have seen the "big smile on his face!"
I'm so glad I give him a big hug that night.
Adios mi amigo!

I'm really saddened by Harry's passing and send my deepest sympathy to his dear friend Linda and to everyone who cared about Harry and will miss him. Thanks so much Linda for letting us know about Harry, we really appreciate it.During our last reunion, Harry and I had a good long chat at the bar, along with,for part of the time, with his friend who I'm quite sure was Linda. Harry had his good old sparkle in his eyes, despite the fact that his body was very worn out, and we had a wonderful time talking, laughing and just enjoying our time together.
During my years at WHS, Harry (Herk as we called him then) was always such a caring, sporty and good looking friend with whom I shared many good times at school and also at Westmount Park, just hanging out and playing sports together. He certainly made me smile many times and we had lots of good talks over the years too.
I definitely feel blessed for knowing Harry and for the time we spent together at our last reunion.
My heart and thoughts are with you Linda during this very difficult time.
