Dearest Harry,
You are right now in a better place, I hope.  I miss you so much.  You were a wonderful colleague and friend.  You always had a positive attitude no matter what the odds you went through were. My condolences to your wife and daughter and other family members, colleagues and friends.  May your great Soul Rest In peace.
You colleague.

My deepest condolences to the family. I worked with Harry at YHSS for many many years. He was such a gentlemen. His dry sense of humour was well known. Harry never complained and ALWAYS helped out when needed.  He was such a dedicated hard working man.  He treated everyone with respect and kindness. You will be missed by so many people Harry.  May you Rest in Eternal Peace.

I am so sorry for your family's loss. Harry was a gem, I will miss his robust laughter responses to my silly comments and work observations. May his memory always be a blessing. 

My deepest condolences, thoughts and prayers to Harry's family and friends. 
I worked with Harry at TESS and remember when he first started.
He was a true gentleman with a dry sense of humour.  He always had a funny comment.  Harry was definitely a hard worker and always got along with his colleagues.
Harry, you will be missed.  
Gone but not forgotten.
May you Rest in Eternal Peace.




My deepest sympathies to the Edwards family,
I am deeply saddened by the passing of my TESS colleague, Harry. We shared a workspace we called, “The Penthouse of York Humber”, while on team 500s. I got to know Harry well, witnessing his incredible diligent work ethic and professionalism. He was meticulous about the details and a master of caseload cleanup. Harry always pitched-in and never once complained about back-up responsibilities. We discovered we had a lot in common. We were both straightshooters, hyper analytical, naturally possessed dry senses of humour, as a result, were the only two team members to test “green” on a TESS personality colour workshop. Having so much in common made working with Harry very easy, but what made it a privilege was Harry’s kindness, determination to carry on and his overall easygoing nature. It was clear he cared about his work, his colleagues and loved his family very much. Simply put, they just don’t make them like Harry anymore. Rest in peace my forever “green” colleague and friend. –Fatima  


Worked with Harry at the same office with TESS for the last almost 20 years. He was a thoughtful and kind person with a good sense of humour, and shared some laughs with him over the years, particularly when we were on the same team! Was a hard worker who always treated clients fairly and respectfully. Will remember his booming voice and easy going ways. Harry, you will be missed.

My condolences go out to Harry's family and friends.

Harry you were one of a kind! 
I'm so glad I had the pleasure of meeting and working with you. I will sorely miss your dry sense of humour and some priceless advice that you gave me and I still reflect on.

My sincere condolences extended to the family and friends of Harry. He was a kind and pleasant individual who warmed your heart with all his interactions. He was committed to supporting his clients in his work and was always willing to help a colleague.

My thoughts and prayers are with Harry's family during this difficult time.
Harry was one of the first people I meet at YH.  He was always willing to help out and give you advice on dealing with difficult cases.   A man of little words and his dry sense of humour just helped us make it through our days. Wonderful person to work with...
Harry will be missed.


Harry would often speak fondly of his family, from milestone birthdays in the Caribbean and traditional candle lit Christmas trees, to Lennon's interest in writing and his begrudging acceptance of the menagerie of pets in his home. Affectionately known as Uncle, Harry's reluctance to eat anything green during office potlucks was legendary- along with his dry wit and even dryer delivery. A creature of habit, steadfast and consistent whether on his commute to work or his breaks, you could set your watch by Harry. My deepest condolences to Harry's family and all those who love him, he will be missed.

Harry,
My great friend and colleague. You are going to be dearly missed.  My heartfelt condolences to your wife and daughter and all other family members and friends.

Yacoub Idris,
YH Office.
