Hi this is Ryan Harry's grandson

I would like to say a few words on behalf of the family and friends

Grandad was a big part of everybodies life's.
Someone to look up to, someone to talk to,and someone who made us all laugh, from his jokes to his scary driving

Speaking of jokes, not many of them we understood, however we had to laugh or he would hit us with his walking stick.

He was a loving husband to Maureen, who he called Moura. he was her soul mate and although death has seperated them physically, love has bound them eternally

He was a loving and proud father of Stephen and Dawn.
he honored and reconised their achievments in life and he loved them deerly he was their hero and will be forever in their hearts.

Words can not explain the influence Harry had on people. His character was cheeky, charming, and sometimes embarrassing especiallynfor his grandchildren. I really could keep you here for hourswith memories we had of grandad.

He was the most gentelest and kindest person that anyone could meet. he was a loved and special man that will never be fogotten.

From his sister in Australlia, lillian to his family and friends here, he will be sadly missed and kept in our hearts forever

and finally I would like to read a peom from harry's great grandaughter Lysha

So heaven has recieved another angle
The night sky another star
Your life has become a loving memory
I know you will not be far
I know you are wacthing over me as my life goes on

I will treasure the ,emories I have of you
I can't believe your gone
A cut above the rest
All that knew would agree
So grandad I will say goodbye and
shall love and miss you with all my heart

Good night God Bless Wine gum
From all your family and friends
