Harry J. Goettel, 93, died on April 22, 2018. Harry had recently moved to North Carolina after 28 wonderful years at The Landings at Skidaway Island in Savannah, Georgia.
Harry was born in Cairo, Illinois, served in the Army during World War II (including in the Battle of the Bulge) and graduated from the University of Illinois. He lived all over the country during his career with AT&T before retiring to The Landings. Harry enjoyed the simple but important things in life – his family, golf with friends, keeping up with current events, and his views of the sunrises and sunsets from his deck in Savannah.
He is survived by his wife, Marie; his son Tim and daughter in law Sally of Cary, North Carolina; four grandchildren: Eric Gilmore (Jessie), Lauren Gilmore, Jeff Goettel and Grant Goettel; and a great-grand daughter, Salem Gilmore.
A celebration of his life will be held at a later date in Cary, North Carolina.
