My condolences to Linda and all the family.  Harry was truly one of the finest gentlemen and an example of a true Christian.  He will be missed by all who knew him. 
~Gloria Thomas.

Harry and I are cousins. He and his twin brother Larry are one month older than me .We grew up less than a mile apart at Between, Ga. Our mothers were sisters. We started first grade together at Between 2 room schoolhouse and were in school together un finishing high school. It would take a large book to recall all our experiences and memories. I was in he and Linda's wedding at Double Springs Baptist Church where we all had attended all our lives. I can not make the trip to El Paso from Ennis because of medical appointments. Will send my love with Denise and Steve.

Dearest Linda, Jason and other family members. 

Harry was truly one of the kindest. funniest and best friends in our lives.     He was genuine and we could call on him when we were in need. He was always available to take to the airport when traveling as well as any other situation. 

We will miss our Tuesday night Taco dinners at Las Palmas,  but we know he is enjoying feasting with our precious Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 

May God give you a peace that only He can give.   Romans 15:13 :  May God, the source of hope, fill you with joy and peace through your faith in him. Then you will overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. 

 Blessings and much love,
Martha and Wayne Cartwright

Jason & Linda
We are sad and shocked about Harry’s passing. We’ve known y’all for over 40 years. Harry was always fun to be around, always a joke or story to tell. Please know you are in our prayers. 
Larry and Marilyn Quisenberry

Oh my heart is broken 😢.   Uncle Harry was so special to me!  We talked on the phone frequently,  and I miss him so already.   We would talk about old family times and wonderful memories.   Also about baseball- he told me he was faithful to his Texas team but whenever they played the Atlanta Braves he had to cheer for the Braves!  He was a true and faithful servant.  Love you Aunt Linda & Jason & family.   Prayers for God’s comfort and grace🙏🏻   God bless, Sharon

We are so sorry to hear of Harry's passing.  Through the years we have such fond memories traveling together, weekly dinners out and laughing with jokes!  Harry will be missed.  Our thoughts and prayers are with Linda, Jason and family.
