Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

  • For some reason my thoughts turned, today, to Harry . . . I worked with him for some months at what was then the Secretary of State Department in Winnipeg. He took me along one time, with I think two of his boys, to a pow wow; we stayed in a little cabin and drank tea. Or rather, Harry drank it--it was just too strong for me. He seemed peace-loving to me, and I will always remember him. - Posted by: Ralph Friesen (Work colleague) on: May 18, 2018
