Known Harry for along time, always had a smile and time for everybody,always remember passing drinks over garden fence. He was a good husband & father , I was well shocked to hear of his passing. One of the good guys gone far too young. Will miss you Harry. A great friend.

You’ve been a constant in my life since I was 2 yrs old always around with a cheeky comment or a joke
I still expect to wave to you as you come home from work or hear you whistling in the garden as the weathers getting warmer or asking Diane if she wants another (alcoholic) drink !
Your more than just a neighbour , your family , we’ve celebrated lots of occasions over the years , and I’m glad my last best memory is of you drunk at my birthday!! (Standard)
I’m not gonna say goodbye , coz it doesn’t seem quiet real yet and I don’t want it to be!

Just save me a seat at the bar and il see you soon

Love you
Xxxxxx

When we first met as new neighbours back in 1991
Oh my how the years have flown by
We have watched our children grow ,side by side
And our friendship also grew

We have shared a few painful times
Outweighed by all the good times
No words can express the sorrow that I feel because you are leaving
Although you will always be in my hearts and thoughts
I will miss your friendship each and every day
More than words can say

See you at the bar for a Bacardi and coke
Xxxxx

I may not have seen you for a long time but always thought of you all. Harry always made you feel welcome and always made me laugh. My thoughts are with you all.

I am going to miss you so much dad.
Since the 19th march none of this has seemed real, even up until now.
I wish this was a nightmare that we are all going to wake up from.
I love you and i hope to meet with you for hugs again some day.
My heart is broken.
