Harry was my very first boss at Armstrong 33 years ago.  He was a kind, honest, and caring gentleman. A great loss…never to be forgotten.  You have my deepest sympathy.

Dear Jeannie and Family,
Our sincere sympathy to you and yours.  Wishing you comfort and strength
in the days to come.

Fondly,
Romaine Templeton Frey ’44
