Harry Floersheim passed away peacefully at home on October 25, 2026. He was born in Frankfurt, Germany, on October 14, 1935.
As a child during World War II, Harry lived in both Germany and Shanghai, China. He later grew up in Sousa, Dominican Republic, before making his way to Rockland County in 1973, following his discharge from the United States Army.
Harry was a successful restaurateur who owned and operated three beloved local establishments: R &H Pancake House, J & B Luncheonette, and Hudson Street Cafe. Through his restaurants, Harry became much more than a business owner. He built lasting relationships with his customers, many of whom became friends, and became a cherished part of the community. He was loved by his customers and will be remembered for the connections he made and the lasting impact he had on the people around him.
Harry is survived by his beloved wife of 56 years, Beverly; his two sons, Harry (Sonia) and Christopher (Laura); and his five grandchildren, Harry, Max, Matthew, Ella, and Christopher.
Harry’s life was marked by remarkable journeys, hard work, and the many relationships he built along the way. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, former customers, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. His memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him and in the community he helped build.
