Uncle Harry was a gentle soul. He loved God and expressed that through his music. He left a legacy of love.

Praying for everyone, this is such a loss! My best memories will be that of playing music with Uncle Harry every year at the Horton Family Reunion. It won't be the same without him and I will miss him dearly. Praying especially for Aunt Judith during this very difficult time. Our loss, his gain for sure, he's no longer in pain and is with his Savior!

Wanda, Marion, Alan and Judith, May the peace of our Lord comfort your hearts at this time. Phyllis and I will always remember the wonderful times shared at the Pop and Granny family summer and Christmas parties as well as times of fellowship. Harry was a very kindred soul who loved life and never met a stranger. He was one of our favorite uncles and we cherish every memory we have shared. Peace be with you. 1 Thessalonians 4: 13-18

I worked for Harry at Wiley Manufacturing Company, Port Deposit Md. Harry was a nice boss and a very good friend. Gave me a lot of encouragement as a young ship-fitter. Sorry for the families loss. David G. Williams

To all who are mourning this loss of a wonderful gentle Man, my Uncle Harry: Our special Friend is now out of pain, and we are in pain at his leaving us. He was always so kind and special to our family when I was a kid. He helped me with my piano playing each time he visited our home in Dublin, showed me new chords and played me a song with great patience. His walk with the Lord assures me I will meet him again some day along side my sweet mother. I'm glad she went first, because her heart would have been broken at his leaving first. God bless everyone of his grieving family members. Our prayers from Alaska go up to our Heavenly Father on your behalf. Niece, Wanda Williams Rowland
