My husband and I met Harry at the Garing Campground. He was good friends with Joe Vergona and would come to visit Joe and after knowing him for a while he would stop and visit me and my husband. We always enjoyed talking to Harry. One time he came to our house in Pittsburgh for a Christmas Party with Joe and Joe's brother Jim which was a lot of fun and laughs. One thing that Harry and I never talked about is that he was born in Braddock. I learned that from his obituary. I wish that we would have discussed it as I grew up in North Braddock. Thinking of you Harry!
