Growling up in Philly, my next door neighbors were the Harts.  This gentleman looks like a fellow I remember.  He was a deaf man.  My family liked him very much.  His mother, Mrs. Hart, was very good to my family. He had a brother, Jim.  Jim lived next door to them.  My little playmate was Jim's daughter, Dale.  Dale died at a young age.  We were about the same age.  In fact, I got my first cocker spaniel dog from their family.  My Mom  used to say that "they don't make neighbors like the Hart's anymore."  Harry was into body building when I was a little girl.  May he rest in peace.  Last member of the Sands family - Lois

Harry was my uncle.  He was only 12 years older than me so I looked up to him in a way that was different than I did with somewhat older relatives.  He was almost like a big brother.
Harry was interested in body-building and was very strong.  As a kid that impressed me.  He would flex his muscles, especially his biceps which I would try to squeeze when I was young.  Later in my teen years, I took up weight lifting to be like Harry. I was never as successful as he was, but I am glad he influenced me in that direction.
I also have fond memories of going to the shore and Harry would come with my family.  I remember fishing for crabs off the dock with him at Seaside Heights.  Like me, he was very fair - both very blond Irish - and we would both sunburn and commiserate together.
When he was a young man, perhaps age 20 or so, Harry got a bicycle with a motor.  That was quite a novelty at the time.  I was maybe 9, and I was really impressed.  I had never seen such a thing.  I thought he was special to have such a bike.
I remember when Harry first met Phyllis, who would become his wife.  She had, has, a wonderful smile.  I could see how happy he was to be in love with her, a kind, sweet love.  Phyllis brought great joy into Harry's life, greater joy I believe than he had ever experienced.
I will always remember Harry as a sweet, kind, and lovely man.  I always looked up to him.
                        With loving memories, Johnny
