Belated condolences on the Harry's passing. I met Harry when he was a co-director at Campbell Court when he and Frances bought an apartment. He was very supportive and helpful in managing our business. I would meet him from time to time walking Karori Park or out and about here. I note I hadn't seen him for a while. As stated I found him a perfect gentleman, a very nice man. Nga mihi aroha.

We were so sorry to hear that
Harry had passed away. It was Harry
who encouraged Ken to go to University when Ken worked for him in the pesticides lab at Dominion
Laboratory in 1955. This led to a life long career
in chemistry. Pauline worked in the Dom Lab Iibrary and always found Harry to be the perfect
gentleman. We were delighted when
he came to visit us in England when Ken was doing Post Doc work at Reading University. He is a link
with our past that we will always cherish.
Kend regards to the family
