Native, was a principled man with a strong set of ethics and high standards. As a college professor at Kennesaw State University, he taught and touched many lives. He mentored many of his students who stayed in touch until his final days. To know Harry was to love him.. He was a true history buff who could answer any question you had about the past. He enjoyed Boating, Fishing, and eating out with friends and family. As a Husband and Dad Harry was the living example of what true love looks like. He was self sacrificing, generous, educated, wise and full of sound advice. He enjoyed taking his grandchildren to the beach, fishing and to the movies. One of his many quotes, "We are going to have a little popcorn with our butter." Not sure if he liked the movie or the popcorn more. I can hear him saying, "Your children are your children, no matter how you get them, you love them the same." And that he did! He never differentiated one from the other; truly he was a man of his word. Patsy was raised in the Atlanta area where she received her schooling. As an energetic employee she excelled in every administrative position she held. She made friends wherever she landed. She was an active member of the Red Hat Ladies, The YMCA Silver Sneakers where she enjoyed water aerobics. She enjoyed Ceramics, Ballroom and Line Dancing, Traveling and new experiences but most of all, Shopping. As Wife, Mother and Grandmother, Patsy was the care giver of the family. Generously she gave her time and resources to make everyone's life better. One who was always willing to take someone in who needed a place to stay. She enjoyed preparing family dinners, giving gifts, teaching her grandchildren and taking them on excursions. Both Harry and Patsy were well loved and respected in their Florida Community. A Celebration of Life Ceremony will be planned at a future date.
