I started working at Greenville Nursing and Rehab and soon found out Harry was my cousin. We were always best buds and he was sad when I told him I had to leave to go to college. I’ll never forget surprise visiting him when I was on breaks and his face lighting up. He will truly be missed. “I love you forever”, Harry. Our saying we always said to each other.❤️
So sorry for your loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Love Mary, Dennis, Samantha and Austin Green.
My Deepest Sympathy for your family Prayers for you all
H. D. never met a person that would ever forget him. He was always happy. If I hadn't seen him for a few months, he would always say hey Little Ralphie what have you been up to, then tell me a funny story. He will be missed by everyone that knew him. Prayers to the family..
