Betty & Family. I am so sorry for your loss. I didn't find out about Harry having passed until the day after the celebration of life. Most of my many fond memories of Harry center around all the curling games with him & Betty and conversations after the games. During our last visit at Pinnel's in Ridgetown, I remember commenting on how well he used his curling stick to deliver the rocks. Harry certainly set a wonderful example of how to live life well, and work for things that are important above one's own self. All the tribute's given by Harry's family at the service were excellent and reflected his life and values so well.

Betty and the Mezenberg family,
Mom and Dad (Mary and Bob Schnekenburger) had such respect and admiration for Harry. I remember so clearly, Harry stopping either at the kilns, or the barn or in front of our house, and he and dad would talk and talk and dad always said they were solving world problems again. Their conversation always ended with both of them laughing or smiling about something and they would hop in their trucks and continue on. Sincere condolences on the loss of a truly good person.

I have so many fond memories of Harry from his time on the Libro Board. Board meetings, planning sessions, and other events. Harry was a member of the search committee in 2011 who interviewed and tested me before I was offered the role of Head Coach, President and CEO of Libro. A role that I have cherished so much ever since. I am so thankful he was in my life.
He will be deeply missed. That I know.
Sincerely, Stephen and Betty Bolton.
