Will miss Harry, his nice smile, the shake of his hand and his old time stories. He was a great example of how to deal with difficulties when many would have given up. He loved the Lord, his church family, and his country. Memories of the times with him will come to mind often and make me and others smile. We will see you again Harry. For now, enjoy paradise and hope you have the garden of your dreams there.
Mildred, you too have been a great example for us. Stay strong, remember all the good times and we will all be together soon. I am here when you need anything.
Love, Frank

Harry Prince was the kind of person that you liked the first time you met him. The kind of man that never knew a stranger. Every time i talked to Harry on the phone he always brightened my day.That is the Harry that i knew.
Rest in peace my good friend. Joe Connelly.
