    Daddy you were a huge part of my world and you have been since the day I laid eyes on you. I feel like part of me is missing now that you are gone. I really miss you already but I know that I will see you again. I will take good care of Tuggy for you and keep her straight. You know that's gonna be a tuff job. Make sure you put on your dancing shoes and dance a jig for me. Until we meet again I love you much much more!

    When I first met Harry about 13 months ago I thought him to be a wiseacre...he had a smart remark for every occasion. However, it didn't take long for Harry to show his "soft under belly". I got to know this sweet man very well, and as his illness progressed he showed his sentimental side time and time again. We who knew him well will miss him so much. Sincere condolences to his family, especially his wife, my dear friend, Peggy
