Hello, Harry was a short segment of my life (1988) a friend whom I have lost on account of my 22 years at that time out of sight. With pleasure I would have spent the one or other day more with Him and his family. But the time passes so fast. On this way I would like to pronounce (also 5 years later) to all my condolence. with friendly ones greet Michael Driessen, Germany - Posted by: Michael Driessen, Germany () on: Apr 08, 2013
